So the league hypothetically decides to reset all rosters and does a redraft and team X goes first. The finals are within grasp of every team. Who is the player that would go first and why?
Wemby would not go in the top 10.
Jokic or Greek would go #1.
Jokic-Luka or Tatum-Giannis or SGA-Embiid,Hali, ant.
Derrick White probably
Bill?
It’s definitely Luka or Jokic first. I wouldn’t be surprised if it was Luka. Just based on age and potential longevity. Then you would definitely have Yanni.After that it’s a smorgasbord of Shai, Tatum, Book, Wemby, Embiid, Edwards, Fox, Morant. After that a mix of the rest with the old heads. The NBA would be weird.
I honestly wonder where the best place to be in a snake draft would be.
Add Hali or me and my boys will add it for you.
Probably #3 as you can get one of Luka, Jokic, or Giannis. And then a solid #2 option on the way back.
Jokic is probably having a top 15 peak ever right now and I’m not sure Doncic is even top 50. Even with age, and Luka potentially getting better, I don’t think they are the same tier of player
Jokic - he does everything and could probably adapt his game to fit any combination of teammates.
I can’t think of a single reason why Luka wouldn’t go first
Because Jokic would rightly go first. Dude is a beast.
Jokic reason
That’s it? No reasoning?
Jokic
giannis, jokic or luka
jokic because hes the best player in the league (id take jokic as of now)
giannis is the only one that you could debate as better than jokic
luka if you want to invest in young players
Jokic would definitely go first, he’s the best player in the league and is potentially gonna remain so for the next few years. Embiid and Giannis would probably go soon enough after as players who are currently in their prime but not towards the end of it like Curry, Durant, LeBron, etc.
If teams are looking at their future as well as winning right now, Luka, SGA, Halliburton and Ant will go highly as well. Luka could probably go 2nd or 3rd.

Joker or Luka. Jokic is the best player in the world and looks to have a game that ages pretty well. Luka is up there with Embiid, Giannis and Joker but is younger.
