NBA has entered about 1/4 of the new season, and many players have performed very well now. I believe everyone knows that there are five positions in the NBA arena, namely point guard, point guard, small forward, power forward and center, and there is a spokesperson in each position. So in the current league, which players are the five strongest players? The strongest players in the five positions given by the US media are: Curry , Booker , Tatum , Antetokounmpo and Jokic. We can see that except Curry, other players are under 30 years old, so the era of James , Durant , and Harden has passed.
Curry did not shine much in his early career and was always troubled by injuries. However, after getting rid of ankle injury, he became the No. 3-point shooter in NBA history. Especially after helping Warriors win the championship last season and won FMVP, they have gradually moved closer to the top 10 NBA roster. Curry still performed well this season, averaging 31.1 points, 6.8 rebounds and 7.1 assists per game. The Warriors' record also reached 6th in the Western Conference.
And on scoring guard , Booker's No. 13 pick, as the successor of Kobe , has also made great progress in recent seasons. He has now become the Suns' best offensive player and the first choice at critical moments. He led the team to the finals and won the first place in the Western Conference. This season, he averaged 27 points, 5 rebounds and 6 assists per game.
In the small forward position, Tatum performed even better after the baptism of the finals last season. In this season, Tatum averaged 31 points, 8 rebounds and 5 assists per game, and the record of Celtics is also ranked first in the league. And in this position as power forward, Antetokounmpo is a master of Qichen. Although Davis has recovered recently, his health level still needs to be questioned. Therefore, Antetokounmpo is still the number one candidate in the power forward position and is also the only player in the league to win the championship FMVP, regular season MVP, and DPOY. Antetokounmpo averaged 31 points, 11 rebounds and 5 assists per game this season.
And Jokic is also a cross-age player. As a player who entered the NBA in the second round, he has won the regular season MVP for two consecutive years. As a big man, he can shoot 3 points, control the ball, and organize, and is the most perfect candidate in the small ball era.
