    Availability is also an ability. I donā€™t agree with some players being ranked top 20 in the league when they hardly ever play.

  2. At6-8FromSyracuse

    Randle might be the least clutch player my 2 eyeballs have ever seen but 54 seems a bit low to me

  3. ComeAtMeYo

    PG at 15 seems dubious considering the guys below him.

  4. ForoaKlanD

    Surprised Bill Simmons didn’t use his executive veto power to push Jokic to #1

  5. Amargaladaster

    Is there a way to see the previous ranking?

  6. mastermind208

    Kyrie jumping by a casual 37 spots to #29 lol

  7. Pollsmor

    Ben just about snuck in here lol. The next few games without KD will be crucial to see if he can continue this trajectory.

  8. Thunder141

    Zion 10th over Ja, Shai, and Mitchell? Wow.

  9. Gaetan123456

    ā€œVersatile defender and flashy playmaker who shoots with the wrong handā€ seems quite accurate lmao

  10. hansgruber943

    Letā€™s go Devin!!! Breaking the top 50 next year for sure

  11. Genuinely curious – has Evan Mobley really been top 50 this year?

  12. Gaetan123456

    Iā€™m sure nobody will disagree with This entire ranking at all

  13. benngold123

    Literally every player up to 57 is better than Wiggins at 38

  14. NeonxGone

    Thank Goodness. Itā€™s been a couple of days since weā€™ve had a really good salt thread.

  15. NovaKash

    How about Julius Randle going from like 92 to 54?

  16. Milli_Vanilli14

    Always think itā€™s dope that curry is the only short dude near the top of any list

    Every number 1 pick since 2011 is on this list except Anthony Bennett and Markelle Fultz. All other picks before that are out of the NBA or have drastically declined, except the *2003* pick LeBron James who is number 8 on the list. Insane.

    There are 11 number 1 picks on the list and 10 number 3 picks, but only 3 number 2 picks. Why is the number 2 spot cursed? There are more number 3, 4, 7, 11, 13, and 27 picks than 2.

    Full draft pick distribution:

    1: James, Davis, Williamson, Irving, Towns, Edwards, Wiggins, Banchero, Cunningham, Ayton, Simmons

    2: Durant, Morant, Ingram

    3: Doncic, Embiid, Tatum, Harden, Brown, Beal, Mobley, Ball, Horford, Barrett

    4: Jackson, Paul, Gordon, Porzingis, Barnes, Conley, Hunter

    5: Young, Garland, Fox

    6: Lillard, Smart, Mathurin

    7: Curry, Markkanen, Randle, Murray, Carter

    8: Wagner

    9: DeRozan

    10: George, Bridges, Lopez, McCollum

    11: Gilgeous-Alexander, Sabonis, Thompson, Turner, Vassell

    12: Haliburton

    13: Booker, Mitchell, LaVine, Herro

    14: Adebayo, Porter

    15: Antetokounmpo, Leonard

    16: Vucevic

    17: Holiday

    19: Huerter, Harris, Collins

    21: Maxey

    22: Allen, Portis

    23: Anunoby

    24: Simons

    25: Capela

    27: Siakam, Gobert, Williams, Kuzma

    31: Bogdanovic, Claxton

    32: Zubac

    33: Brunson

    35: Green, Jones

    36: Brogdon, Robinson

    38: Dinwiddie

    39: Grant, Middleton

    41: Jokic

    46: Clarkson, Powell

    Undrafted: VanVleet, Wood, Caruso

  18. Herakleios

    How did Franz and Paolo each *fall* in this ranking?

  19. jrbcnchezbrg

    Why does the picture for booker look like hes witnessing war crimes

  20. DaBeast1995

    Draymond Green being 35 is just absurd lmaoo

  21. Mightbethrownaway24

    Anthony Edward’s is playing better than he did last year and dropped rankings? Haliburton at 20? Ad at 9?

    What is this list?

  22. nedflandders237

    Halliburton is not better than Jaylen Brown

  23. venitienne

    Rockets the only team in the NBA with nobody on the list. Sigh.

  24. Raptorsthrowaway1

    My only comment about the Top 10 is you cant have AD in there for how injured he has been over the last couple of years. 101 games across the last 3 seasons (inc this one) is not good enough availability to warrant a top 10 place IMO

  25. stereoboy44

    How in the world is AD top 10? Heā€™s literally in street clothes 50% of the time
