POINT GUARDS / SHOOTING GUARDS / SMALL FORWARDS / POWER FORWARDS / CENTERS
1. Kevin Durant
Player Option / Small Forward / 6-9 / Team: Golden State Warriors
26.4 ppg, 6.8 rbg, 5.4 apg
|
|
Still only 29 years old, Durant is just now entering his career peak. Will dominate for seasons to come. |
2. LeBron James
Player Option / Small Forward / 6-8 / Team: Cleveland Cavaliers
27.5 ppg, 8.6 rpg, 9.1 apg
|
|
The best player in the game, James is showing little sign of slowing down even in his age-33 season. |
3. Paul George
Player Option / Small Forward / 6-9 / Team: Oklahoma City Thunder
21.9 ppg, 5.7 rpg, 3.3 apg
|
|
One of the league’s top two-way wings, Paul George does a bit of everything on the floor, including score at a very healthy rate. |
Restricted / Small Forward / 6-8 / Team: Milwaukee Bucks
12.6 ppg, 4.9 rpg
|
|
Never looked fully comfortable after returning from a torn ACL. The health of his knees will determine the size of his next contract. |
Player Option / Small Forward / 6-8 / Team: Oklahoma City Thunder
16.2 ppg, 5.8 rpg
|
|
Still an above-average scorer, Carmelo Anthony can play the 4-spot, space the floor from deep and get you a bucket when games get tight. |
6. Trevor Ariza
Unrestricted / Small Forward / 6-8 / Team: Houston Rockets
11.7 ppg, 4.4 rpg
|
|
A threat from beyond the arc and a decent defender, Trevor Ariza remains an excellent role player. |
7. Rodney Hood
Restricted / Small Forward / 6-8 / Team: Cleveland Cavaliers
14.7 ppg, 2.8 rpg
|
|
An athletic, sharpshooting wing who has improved his consistency. Had a career year in 2017-18. |
Restricted / Small Forward / 6-9 / Team: San Antonio Spurs
7.9 ppg, 5.4 rpg
|
|
A wing with great size who can play some small-ball power forward, as well as distribute at an above-average rate. |
9. Rudy Gay
Player Option / Small Forward / 6-8 / Team: San Antonio Spurs
11.5 ppg, 5.1 rpg
|
|
A veteran forward who can score and rebound from the wing, and who has shown more effort defensively as a Spur. |
10. Wilson Chandler
Player Option / Small Forward / 6-8 / Team: Denver Nuggets
10.0 ppg, 5.4 rpg
|
|
A decent one-on-one scorer, Wilson Chandler can still be productive in a limited role. |
11. Mario Hezonja
Unrestricted / Small Forward / 6-7 / Team: Orlando Magic
9.6 ppg, 3.7 rpg
|
|
Was Mario Hezonja’s relative breakout in 2017-18 a product of the Croatian finally getting a longer leash, or was it a contract-year situation and thus, potentially, fool’s gold? |
12. Joe Johnson
Unrestricted / Small Forward / 6-7 / Team: Houston Rockets
6.8 ppg, 3.1 rpg
|
|
Despite his advanced age, Joe Johnson can still provide some scoring off the bench. |
13. Doug McDermott
Restricted / Small Forward / 6-8 / Team: Dallas Mavericks
7.8 ppg, 2.5 rpg
|
|
A knockdown three-point shooter. Really began to hit his stride after joining the Mavs. |
