Recently, the US media "Fadeaway World" released a long article, which selected the best player in each NBA draft in the past 20 years, which triggered widespread discussion among fans.
2021: Mobley
As this year's probing show, Mowbury's rookie season is significantly better than Cunningham and Green, averaging 14.9 points, 8.1 rebounds and 2.6 assists in 49 games. Mobley is the best defensive player of the year, and he is not ambiguous on the offensive end, not only can eat cake, but also shows a good ability to shoot from the middle and long distance. With his current development trend, being selected as an All-Star should be sooner or later.
2020: Edwards
In the first year of competition, Ball took the lead in the best rookie, but from the second season onwards, Edwards was a bit of a catch-up, although Ball has been selected as an All-Star. Averaging 21.9 points, 4.8 rebounds and 3.5 assists so far this season, his athleticism, projective ability and desire to win have all been proven. The Timberwolves are seventh so far this season, and with his help, they are expected to return to the long-lost playoffs.
2019: Morant
Zion may have been the more talented man of the year, but he was so brittle that he played only 85 games in three seasons, compared to the steady Morant who has ushered in an explosion this season. Averaging 26.8 points, 5.9 rebounds and 6.9 assists so far this season, the Grizzlies have returned to the top three in the West under his leadership, and he has also been named to the All-Star starting lineup this year without suspense.
2018: Doncic
As a 2018 flower discovery show, Doncic has played in the league for 4 seasons, during which he was selected as an All-Star 3 times and the Season All-Season Team twice, and he successfully took over the scepter in Nowitzki's hands and led the lone ranger team to the playoffs for many years. Averaging 27.5 points, 9.2 rebounds and nine assists so far this season, Doncic is better defensive than Trae Young and much stronger than Ayton.
2017: Tatum
Compared with other drafts, the 2017 draft is generally not high, and Fultz has been plagued by injuries for many years, and Ball has been tepid, with only two All-Stars so far - Tatum and Allen. The former is undoubtedly the better one, he has been selected as an All-Star for three consecutive years, averaging 25.7 points, 8.4 rebounds and 4.2 assists per game this season, and under his leadership, the Celtics are currently regulars in the playoffs.
2016: Brown
The 2016 draft success rate is very impressive, and a number of players have been selected as All-Stars, such as Simmons, Ingram, Brown, Sabonis, Murray, Siakam, etc. Originally, with Simmons's talent and achievements, it should have been the best player of this year, but his desire to survive and professional attitude is really disappointing, in contrast, the steady Brown is more worth looking forward to, He's averaged 23.7 points, 6.5 rebounds and 3.3 assists per game this season, And Brown is a top-notch 3D striker, and of course, his ability to hold the ball and attack isn't bad.
2015: Booker
As the 2015 winner, Towns was selected as an All-Star three times, entered the Best Team of the Season twice, and won the three-point game and skill game championship, but compared to the many honors he has gained, the Timberwolves' record in the past few years is really difficult to come by; in contrast, the Suns have reached the Finals last season. Booker has averaged 25.5 points, 5.2 rebounds and 4.5 assists this season, the sixth consecutive season he has averaged more than 20 points per game, and the young quarterback, his offensive all-round type and desire to win, is very similar to Kobe Bryant.
2014: Jokic
The 2014 draft produced two super centers – Embiid and Jokic. Embiid, by contrast, may be tougher on the defensive end, but Jokic is more comprehensive in other ways, not only attacking, but also organizing tandems, in addition to which he has won the regular season MVP trophy. Jokic is a little better than Embiid, who has a higher attendance and plays more games.
2013: Alphabet Brother
This is a year with a very low growth rate, who remembers the champion show Bennett and the Tanhua show Potter? Oladipo, who has performed poorly in the first three, is currently trapped in injuries. However, the rise of the alphabet brother has raised a fig leaf for this draft, and the 27-year-old Greek forward has not only been selected as an All-Star seven times, twice named the regular season MVP, 1 time the best defensive player, but also led the Bucks to win the championship again after many years last year and was elected as the Finals MVP.
2012: Davis
This year's draft is also quite impressive, with a number of all-stars emerging, such as Davis, Bill, Lillard, Green, Drummond, etc., and Davis, who is the winner of the show, is undoubtedly the best of them. To date, he has been named to the All-Star eight times, the All-Team of the Season four times, the Defensive Team of the Season four times, and helped the Lakers win the championship in 2020, and as long as he stays healthy, Davis has always been one of the most versatile interior lines in the league.
2011: Leonard
This draft has produced three very good defenders - Irving, Thompson and Thomas Jr., but they are still much inferior to Leonard. The 30-year-old forward has been named to the All-Star five times, the All-Season Team five times, the Defensive Team of the Season seven times, and the Defensive Player of the Season twice, and he has also helped the Spurs and Raptors win championships and was elected to the Finals MVP. Even if he retires in place, Leonard can be selected as an All-Star with his current achievements.
2010: George
The representative stars of this year's draft are Wall, Hayward, Cousins and George, of which George's achievements are undoubtedly the highest so far, with 7 All-Stars, 6 times in the Season's Best Team, and 4 times in the Season's Best Defensive Team. George has always been one of the league's best offensive and defensive strikers, but for a long time he has been overshadowed by James, Durant, Leonard and others.
2009: Curry
This is a very high draft, in addition to Harden and Curry's unique double glory, DeRozan, Griffin, Holliday, Lawson, Teague and others have also been selected as All-Stars. Curry is undoubtedly the far-reaching leader of the same show, and so far he has been selected as an All-Star eight times, all of them are starters, seven times into the season's best team, helping the Warriors reach the Finals for five consecutive years and win the championship three times. Curry is the best player in Warriors history and the best shooter in league history.
2008: Westbrook
It was an impressive draft, with two regular-season MVP point guards at the same time, but injuries ruined Rose's career and left Westbrook to shine. To date, he has been named to the All-Star nine times, the All-Season Team nine times, and the regular season MVP once. Although the outside world is constantly questioning Wei Shao at this stage, no one can deny the brilliant achievements that Wei Shao has made before. In his career, he is currently missing a championship ring.
2007: Durant
Durant has become the strongest player in this draft without suspense, and so far has been selected as an All-Star 12 times, the Best Team of the Season 9 times, the leading scorer of the season 4 times, the regular season MVP once, and the team win the championship twice and was elected to the Finals MVP. Whether it is individual honor or collective honor, Durant is a great rider in the same show.
2006: Lowry
The overall quality of this draft is not high, only a few players are not bad, such as Aldridge, Rondo, Roy, Lowry, of which Lowry has the lowest draft pick, but he has achieved a wonderful life counterattack. To date, he has been named an All-Star six times and a season team member once, and he has also helped the Raptors win the only championship trophy in team history.
2005: Paul
The other players in this draft have either chosen to retire or faded out of the league, but Paul is still active in the league, and the No. 4 show of the year has been named an All-Star 13 times so far, 10 times to the All-Star Team of the Season, nine times to the Defensive Team of the Season, and at the age of 36, he can still contribute to the double-double stats of 14.8 points and 10.7 assists per game. He's one of the best point guards in league history and only needs a championship ring as a note.
2004: Howard
As the 2004 winner, Howard was also far ahead of his classmates. The 36-year-old veteran is still in the league, so far 8 times selected as an All-Star, 8 times to the Best Team of the Season, 5 times to the Best Defensive Team of the Season, 5 rebounding kings at his peak, 3 consecutive years as the best defensive player of the season, in 2020, he also successfully won the championship with the Lakers, so far, Howard's career is complete.
2003: James
This draft is known as the Platinum Generation, Wade, Anthony, Bosh are all Hall of Fame level players, but James is undoubtedly the strongest in this year, so far he has been selected as an All-Star, 17 times to the Season's Best Team, 4 times to the regular season MVP, 4 times to lead the team to win the championship and was elected to the Finals MVP. James is the greatest small forward in the history of the league, and he ranks second in the latest ranking of the 75 superstars in history by the US media, behind jordan, the god of basketball.
2002: Yao Ming
As the greatest player in the history of Chinese basketball, Yao Ming has only played 9 seasons in the league, but he has conquered fans around the world with his outstanding performance. He was named an All-Star eight times and the All-Season Team five times, and would have achieved more if it weren't for injuries. After retiring, Yao Ming was also successfully inducted into the Naismith Hall of Fame, and he is also the only player in the show to receive this honor.
