    I would say Zion Williamson *definitely* needed to be on this list. His current reputation is horrible to say the least being marred with less than 35 games per season being as unhealthy as he is. Not to mention his new off-court controversies. From being the 2019 number one overall pick to potentially being called a bust if the pattern repeats this season, especially since all eyes will be on the future in Victor Wembamyama, this is certainly a make-or-break year for Zion.

      Zion doesn’t need to be here. When healthy, he’s proved why he was the number one pick. Off court issues don’t need to be brought up in what he brings to the court. He just needs to take care of his body and be healthy. When he plays he’s a monster.

Everyone says what if about him… everyone knew he could ball, he just needed to not be hurt. Zions in the same boat right now. He doesn’t need to step up his game at all like the video is about. He just needs to keep his ass on the court and kick the injury bug

    Ayton is tough. He needs to improve his attitude, not necessarily his skill. It was def his fault but he was not rewarded when he established post position or ran the floor and that COULD get worse with beal, kd and booker (unless booker decides to become a 19/7/7 and work th3 two man game with ayton. Less would be more for booker.

    Kuminga and moody MUST improve. Thyre whats left of that young additions and are up for contracts. Jalen green must improve because hes been wildly undisciplined and has a hard caoch in udoka coming. Wiseman MUST improve because he was a #1 pick and there is less pressure but more comp on his team for minutes. Patrick williams needs to improve for the bulls, hes got the most 2 way potential but hes playing with offensive black holes in derozan, lavine and vucevic
    Vanvleet got paid to be the man with green for 3 seasons. Toronto had too many guys and are going young. He needs to be healthu amd a leader more than anything
    Bridges showed flashes and probably needs to become a better faciliatator but we dont know what that team is yet so he just needs to play
    Bane is going to get the opportunity to be a 25+ ppg player. He was already great w/out ja in large spurts next to jones. Hes straight
    keegan murray is a 2nd year player who is good as the third option right now. Sabonis MUST improve on offense, specifically from 15 to 20 ft because hes left open too much. He also needs to be a better defender
    Bam needs to be more aggressive. He shouldnt be the offense initiator ans they have shooters. He needs to hit the 18 footers

    I disagree with Bam. Dude is good enough to playmake and even at time showed elite level (especially in the playoffs). His jumpshot diet has increased and more efficiently too! Without Tyler, Max, and probably Duncan, he won’t have to set screens all game and be more of a paint presence and also get more boards as well (even tho 10 for all he’s asked to do is pretty incredible)

    Okay… here’s my vendetta against people saying players “NeEd tO be A sTar!?” Or NEED to average X, Y, or Z otherwise they’re a bust. That simply isn’t true. The media, fans, and league put WAYYY too much hype and pressure on these guys. When they enter the league they’re still barely adults. They have YEARS to adapt and play. The only people who are “busts” are the people go we EXPECT to be all start caliber players when not every overhyped prospect pans out that way. Especially so young.. if they’re in their prime that’s different. But if these guys are under 26 and you’re expecting them to carry the weight of an entire organization because WE THE FANS expect them to or they’re a busy, that’s just not fair. Ppl were SO quick to write off Andrew Wiggins, and now he’s an NBA champion. Give these young guys a few years first. Like damn.. 💀

      I agree with this. Only thing I will say is that it’s hard not to once they get off of their rookie contract and they get max contracts or get hefty contracts. That money is an investment in talent. Most players that play at an elite level do it by year 4 or 5. And that’s where these players are headed aside from Keegan Murray and Austin Reaves

      @@jaquanterry4737 I can totally understand this too. But that’s why a lot of that money they get is what I call “Cash for potential” Most of these teams pay these big bucks because they see these stars turning into superstars. Not because they deserve the money or already are stars.
