On December 16, Beijing time, today's NBA games are proceeding according to normal planning, but many friends who have not watched the game for a long time are likely to find a problem after watching the game again. That's when they started not knowing the stars in the league, because the NBA was in the throes of a renaissance. The likes of James and Durant have grown old, and a new generation of players has not yet grown up, which makes the NBA flat. At this time, an American media also interviewed a number of retired players and asked them a question, that is, who is the best player in five years, but did not expect to get such an answer.
5. Zion
Although the talented Tsubasa has only played a full game for a season and a half or so, he has already gained countless fans across the United States, and no player has ever had such a powerful impact as he has before. And he has always been given high hopes by the Pelicans, and even though he has been recuperating for so long, the Pelicans have not urged him to return as soon as possible. In the face of this powerful talent, 5.8% of retired players think Zion is the best player in the league after five years, and this answer seems to be more reasonable.
4. Durant
If it's about picking a player who can reach the top of the league after returning from a major injury in NBA history, durant is undoubtedly the best answer. No player has ever been able to play like Durant after a ruptured Achilles tendon, and Durant is still one of the best players in the league. So there are still 5.9% of people who think that Durant in five years is still the best player in the league, but this idea is more unrealistic, because Durant five years later is about 38 years old.
3. Doncic
From the time he first joined the league to the present, Doncic has been the hottest rising star in the league, and when people still hope that his performance in the Europa League is enough, he has already played at the MVP level in the NBA. It's no wonder why so many people think Doncic is the best NBA player in five years, and the 16.8% vote is no joke. As long as he can follow this trajectory and not get hurt, then he really has a chance to become the league number one in the future.
2, I don't know
Here, 20.2% of voters give an option they don't know, and that's a reflection of the current situation in the NBA, where no one knows who the best players of the future are. Looking at all the players in the current NBA, no one can show unparalleled talent like James, so there are many people who are afraid to decide who is the best NBA player in the future. Although this answer seems perfunctory, it also reflects the current situation that the NBA does not have too many outstanding young people.
1. Alphabet brother
I have to say that the player who was selected with the fifteenth pick simply played the first in the history of this pick, and the two regular season MVPs plus the championship and FMVP have improved his historical status. And he's only about 27 years old, and he still has a lot of time to grow, and he's only about 32 years old five years later. So 28.2% of people think that Alphabet Brother is the best player in the NBA in the next five years, and according to the current situation in the league, Alphabet Brother seems to be the person who is really the most likely to become the first player in the league.
This was followed by a younger generation of players such as Morant, Tatum, Booker, and Three-Ball, but compared to the top five players, the players behind them are more or less missing something. They don't have a particularly explosive physical talent or a particularly good scoring ability. Even if they are already All-Star players now, it may be difficult to grow into the first man in the league in the next five years.
