Exceptions exist for players that reshape the entire game and being the greatest shooter of all time.
Superstar level to me isn’t just making the NBA first team, but also winning a chip and winning fmvps while being the main option on your team, being popular and recognizable worldwide, to the point even non basketball fans know who you are. Sorry, but Luka and Embiid aren’t on that level without a chip.
They were/are superstars because they had already achieved all those things and cemented themselves in history as one of the greatest of all time, regardless of how the last legs of their career went. The whole world knows who they are and people today are still buying their merch even in retirement.
