As the saying goes, "three years old sees old", some newcomers even if they have only played one or two seasons in the league, we can still see the future height of the player from the performance and potential of the player, with Doncic, Trae Young, Haliburton, Edwards and others signing a maximum salary or maximum salary contract has come into effect, who can provoke the future of the young people who are still in the rookie contract and have not been renewed early?
10th place: Wagner, 20 points and 58 rebounds 39 assists, expected: average all-star!
Wagner is the eighth pick in the first round in 2021, 2.08 meters tall from Germany, Wagner has a very good sense of coordination with air cuts and down, and his footwork and defense are not as thin as he seems, but Wagner's offensive end is unstable and the projection efficiency is too low, and Wagner only shot 44% of the shooting rate when the Magic team has Banchero to attract a lot of defense, Wagner cannot become the main offense of a team, he can only serve as a deputy.
Magic new duo.
Ninth: Cameron Thomas, 239 points 23 assists, expected: average all-star!
Last season, he averaged 10 per game6 points, as a result, he jumped to an average of 23 per game this season9 points, and just yesterday against the Warriors Thomas hit another 41 points in a single game, but Thomas's defense and offense are completely incompatible, and most of the games that have exploded in scoring this season have ended in losses, Thomas can become a scoring master like Louis Williams, and if he is lucky, he will have one or two All-Star opportunities.
Eighth place: Mobley, 16 points and 10 points this season5 rebounds 17 blocks, expected: regular all-stars!
Mobley's rookie first year was amazing, but in the second and third years, there was almost no trace of improvement, 208th in the league in offensive efficiency this season, and 28th in the league in defensive efficiency.
The Cavaliers' leaning outside line has cost Mobley a lot of opportunities on the offensive end.
Seventh: Cunningham, 214 points 38 rebounds and 7 assists, expected: average All-Star!
At present, the Pistons have suffered 23 consecutive defeats, and Cunningham's high mistakes and low efficiency are also in line with the style of play of scoring points in a bad team, Pistons head coach Monty wants to cultivate Cunningham into a ball-handling core like Harden, but Cunningham's firepower on the offensive end cannot affect the trend of the game at all, and the label of inefficient players cannot be torn off for the time being.
Sixth place: Barnes, 202 points 89 rebounds 57 assists, expected: Three of the best teams!
In the first year of the rookie, Barnes beat Cunningham, Mobley and others to win the best rookie award, and now after two years, Barnes has ushered in full progress in all fields, according to the famous reporter Shams, the Raptors have been with a number of teams ** about Siakam and Anunoby trades, and in all the deals, Barnes is the only non-sale for the Raptors.
Barnes deserved to be the Rookie of the Year award.
5th place: Maxey, 256 points 67 assists, expected: Three of the best teams!
Maxey was one term earlier than all of the above, and he should theoretically have been offered a contract extension this summer, when Philadelphia management also offered a four-year one$200 million **, after being rejected by Maxey, there will be no news, and next summer the 76ers will either take the initiative to send Maxey a five-year 2300 million cap salary, either hand over the qualifications first and then match the contracts offered by other teams, just like the Suns did with Ayton last year, with a five-year 2300 million and four years without Byrd clause 14.5 billion, it depends on how the management of Philadelphia chooses.
Fourth place: Shen Jing, 197 points, 9 rebounds, 52 assists, expected: three in the best team!
Shen Jing has now become the essence of the core of the Rockets, Shen Jing is like a small Jokic can stand up and take over the game when the team needs it, Shen Jing's advantage is that the technical characteristics and ball quotient are good, but the defects of static talent are really bad, especially there are serious shortcomings in standing tall, so Shen Jing is very difficult to move in the position of center.
Jalen Green's cultivation value is not as good as before.
Third place: Banchero, 21 points and 68 rebounds 44 assists, expected: Second Team of the All-Best!
Banchero has improved in all aspects this season, especially in terms of leadership ability and key ball handling compared to Cunningham in 21, and it is no surprise that Banchero will definitely be an All-Star regular in the future, of course, the flaw is that he has a free-throw shooting percentage of 677% is slightly lower.
2nd place: Holmgren, 169 points 81 rebound 27 blocks, expected: All-team second line!
In addition to scoring rebounds, Holmgren is a big step ahead of Wembanyama in shooting, three-pointers, free throws, effective shooting percentage and true shooting percentage, just in the game that just won over the Nuggets, Holmgren almost had a triple-double with 17 points, 11 rebounds and 9 blocks.
Wembanyama is two years younger than Holmgren, and what will Wemban, who is also 21 years old, do in two years?
No. 1: Wembanyama, 19 points, 11 rebounds and 3 blocks this season, expected: Best Team for a while!
Wembanyama is 2.26 meters tall and shot just 43 from the field6%, but Wemban is the Spurs' number one core to attract the most defensive pressure, and his offensive environment is much worse than the Thunder's Holmgren, and Wemban is only 19 years old and Holmgren is 21 years old, and talent is always greater than immediate power for young players.
