Some draft years like 2021 have multiple best player candidates. But I went with the most consensus at least.
There are top 1-3 picks that turned out to be the best player in their respective draft.
But there are also developmental project players like Giannis and Joker that are transformed into superstars.

Scottie’s my guy but even though he’s the first all star to come out of that draft class I honestly could see arguments for Cade or Sengun.
who do you all think is the worst player on this list? excluding '21 on as it’s still early for those guys. maybe lamarcus aldridge? idk this list is stacked
Aldridge or Ja
