The 2016 NBA draft is regarded as another "small year" since 2013. However, the concept of big and small years will always undergo changes that we cannot predict after entering NBA. Just as 2009, which was once widely regarded as a weak year for the draft, became the "golden generation" with the rise of first-class stars such as Stephen Curry, James Harden, and DeMar DeRozan. The classes of 2013 and 2016 are also completing their "name rectification" under the leadership of leading figures. Now, a season and a half has passed. Now we are ranking the 2016 rookies again. What will be the result?

No. 1 pick: Ben Simmons

The 2016 NBA draft is regarded as another

Simmons is still the well-deserved No. 1 pick

After only playing half a season, Simmons has proven why he is a T1 rookie. He averaged 16.6 points, 7.7 rebounds, 7.4 assists, 1.83 steals and 0.88 blocks per game. The last person to produce such data in his rookie year was "Big O" Oscar Robertson in the 1960-1961 season. In front of Simmons, there is only the sky.

No. 2 pick: Brandon Ingram

The 2016 NBA draft is regarded as another

Ingram is already the league's top small forward

Among the Lakers' top three picks, Ingram is undoubtedly the one with the brightest future. After a disastrous performance in his rookie season, Yingge's progress in his second season was surprising. This season, he averaged 16.2 points, 6.5 rebounds, 3.8 assists, 0.77 steals, and 0.75 blocks per game. He has become the new core of the Lakers' offense and defense. It is worth noting that he is more than a year younger than Simmons.

Picking the top pick: Jamal Murray

The 2016 NBA draft is regarded as another

The Canadian genius Murray

Murray and Harris form the Nuggets version of the "Splash Brothers", which has begun to take shape. For most of the season, Murray has scored 30+ points seven times, and has scored 30+ points in two consecutive games. This season, he averaged 16.4 points, 3.6 rebounds and 3.1 assists per game. Murray's explosive scoring performance on the court, as well as his visually impactful outside shooting, can remind people of Stephen Curry. For the Nuggets, Jokic determines the team's lower limit. Which step Murray and Harris can go will determine the team's final upper limit.

Fourth pick: Jaylen Brown

This season, Jaylen has taken the position of the Celtics' main force and has also become one of the Green Army's most reliable outside defenders. Averaging 14.1 points, 5.3 rebounds, 1.6 assists and 0.97 steals per game, he has also entered the league's first-tier wings. For him, whether he can improve his independent offensive ability determines whether he will become a top 3D player or an All-Star.

Fifth pick: Dejounte Murray

The 2016 NBA draft is regarded as another

Spurs Future Murray Jr.

The Spurs' starting point guard has been passed from the hands of Tony Parker to Dejounte Murray. . And the reward of the Spurs' 29th pick in the first round has not lived up to the sacrifice of his predecessors. This season, Murray averaged 7.5 points, 5.4 rebounds, 2.9 assists and 0.93 steals per game. His defensive efficiency reached a terrible 97.2, fifth in the league and first among point guards. "Point Guard Leonard" is on his way.

Sixth pick: Taurian Prince

Prince is now firmly seated in the starting position of the Hawks, and may be the only one in the current Hawks lineup who can become the "Hawks' future" One person. The other one is this year's rookie, John Collins . Probably no one would dislike such a young and cheap 3D small forward. This season, Prince averaged 12.5 points, 4.7 rebounds, 2.3 assists, 1 steal and 0.5 blocks per game. However, Prince's upper limit may be lower than the previous ones. After all, he was born in March 1994 and is now almost 24 years old.

Seventh pick: Chris Dunn

If Dunn is not injured this season, his ranking may be improved. After a disappointing season, Dunn ushered in a rebirth with the Bulls. In 45 games played this season, he averaged 13.4 points, 4.5 rebounds and 6 assists per game, and ranked fourth in the league with 1.98 steals. Sometimes, his performance on the court will make you clearly feel that he is a step above others.But sometimes, he will use crazy strikes and brainless mistakes to make you take back your judgment. Also an older rookie born in March 1994, Dunn needs to stabilize his performance as soon as possible.

Eighth pick: Malcolm Brogdon

Brogdon deserves all the praise. As the best rookie born in the second round, this is the best interpretation of "counterattack". This season, Brogdon averaged 13.3 points, 3.3 rebounds, 3.2 assists and 0.89 steals per game. Moreover, after his injury, the Bucks' recent situation has reached a low point.

Ninth pick: Jakob Poeltl

A few days ago, Poeltl just used a face-to-face performance to force Yan and dunk Zhuang Shen, which made everyone re-recognize himself.

In 18.4 minutes of playing time, he scored 7 points, 4.7 rebounds and 1.28 blocks, with a shooting percentage of 65%.

Tenth pick: Domantas Sabonis

Sabonis Jr. proved with his performance that he is not the addition in the Audi- George transaction.
