Explaining these choices: Many lists have Lebron James criminally underrated, as far as we're concerned there's only 5 guaranteed better players then Lebron James. From 61 back on this list it was very tough to rank. You could make a valid case for many of these athletes to be above the rest. However I am confident that players like Keegan Murray, Cole Anthony, Terry Rozier belong on this list. Back to the top 5, I feel as if it was the easiest to decide. You have 5 generational talents all who are coming off incredible years, some more impressive than others. Jimmy Butler cracked the top 10 and it should be no surprise, he leads that Miami Heat team like no other and does good doing it. 37 through 50 was also tough to set numbers on, so much all star talent there, but so many factors to consider. This list is most definitely open to discussion. Here's to a fresh new NBA season, which we will of course be covering.
