I feel as if 25 Under 25 is a little too broad and most of those guys are already established monsters like Luka so 23 and under really gives us the fresh, young talent and future.
Alright, any time you make a subjective list like this your gonna get torn to shreds no matter what the list is, go on tell me why I am wrong and why your favorite player should be higher.
Important:
- considers all components of the game: offense, rebounding, passing, efficiency, defense, etc.
- the ranking is based off: 60% this season, and 40% previous years and previous success and accolades (i.e if one guy is slightly worse than the other this season but has some really good previous accolades, he gets a higher rank, like Josh Giddey hasn’t been good this year, but he makes it over someone like Ausar Thompson because he was really good last year and Thompson’s only played a couple games)
- yes, this is a edited version of a list I posted yesterday due to the fact that I realized I had totally forgot to update and tweak the middle part of my list from the beginning of the season and it was weighted too heavily on the start of this season and the fact that I need to get a life
Ant number one
Jayson Tatum should be up there.
I would put Banchero above Mobley
Darius Garland high asf
OPs list isn’t too crazy but I’d put him below Sengun and above Herro
Sengun gotta be top 5
I disagree with a few things but honestly pretty solid list
Gimme Jalen Johnson on this list
Garland be fooling yall
mobley should be two spots lower.
Why scottie and banchero below sengun and herro
because they’re worse than sengun and herro
Because Sengun has been an absolute beast this year - look at his advanced numbers, he’s one of the most valuable guys in the league so far
Barnes is 9th in the entire nba in EPM which is the golden standard of capture all advanced stats. Sengun is great too but he’s 19th. Scottie just brings so much defensively on top of what Sengun does. He’s been an animal on that end.
I’d put Giddey in cam Thomas’ place tbh
Chet should be #3
paolo way too low
I think Herro is way too high.
Herro above Barnes?!? lol no.
