The American media listed the three best players in the NBA draft in the past 20 years, and Yao Ming was selected.

Throughout the history of NBA, we all know that the correct draft will change the future of the team. However, in the NBA draft in the past 20 years, which draft players have the greatest influence on their teams? You know, it is not easy for a rookie to adapt to the NBA, but we have also seen some excellent talented players prove this with amazing performances on the court. So Bitar, the author of Fadeawayworld, listed the top three players in the NBA annual draft in the past 20 years.

The top three players in the 2002 NBA draft

First place: Yao Ming.

Second place: Amar Stoudemire

Third place: Carlos Buze

Obviously, the best player in the 2002 draft was Yao Ming. Yao Ming not only changed people's views on the super center, but also completely changed the game. For a 7' 6 "big man, Yao Ming's skill is very good, and he can be said to have epic inside attack skills. Because of his huge size, he can easily jump shot inside, and his jump shot ability is higher than that of the league stars, and his hand feels soft. As soon as Yao Ming entered the NBA, he caused a sensation.

But Yao Ming has also pushed the NBA to the global market, because the NBA has entered the China market. There is no doubt that tens of millions of China fans suddenly poured into the NBA market. At this time, almost everyone came to support Yao Ming and Houston Rockets. Alma Stoudemire won the rookie of the year. He averaged 13.5 points and 8.8 rebounds for the Phoenix Suns. Although Alma Stoudemire's performance looks stronger, Yao Ming's cultural influence is greater. Of course, carlos boozer, as an all-star player of Utah Jazz, had his moments of glory.

The top three players in the 2003 NBA draft

First place: lebron james.

Second place: Dwyane Wade.

Third place: carmelo anthony.

There is no doubt that LeBron James is the greatest player in the 2003 NBA draft, because he is still the top 5 superstar in the NBA 19 world. The reason why lebron james made himself greater and stayed healthy for such a long time is because he made more efforts. It also made lebron james the greatest talented player in history, and his influence on the off-court can be said to be even greater. Because LeBron James has always been a role model in life.

Lebron james has made many great achievements in basketball, no matter he is an individual or a team, he is undoubtedly the greatest player of his generation. Dwyane Wade was the man who helped lebron james win his first ring. Considering his performance in the 2006 finals, he is also one of the greatest players in NBA history. As an excellent key killer and defensive guard, Dwyane Wade is regarded as the top three shooting guards in NBA history. But don't forget Cameron Anthony, one of the most talented scorers in league history. He was the top three in the 2003 draft. Although Cameron Anthony has no MVP or NBA championship title, as a native of new york, Cameron Anthony will enter the Hall of Fame after his career.

The top three players in the 2004 NBA draft

First place: Dwight Howard.

Second place: Iguodala

Third place: josh smith.

Many people seem to have forgotten Dwight Howard's dominance at the peak. He won three defensive player of the year awards and brought the Orlando Magic to the finals with a star-studded lineup. Dwight Howard is one of the best centers in NBA history. Dwight Howard was selected as an All-Star eight times, an NBA All-Team eight times and an NBA All-Defensive Team five times. Dwight Howard will also become a Hall of Famer after he retires.

20 15 finals MVP is second only to Dwight Howard. Although Iguodala is not expected to enter the Hall of Fame, he has always been a great player in his career, especially when the finals slowed LeBron James down and made him the MVP of the finals. Josh smith's skills and athletic ability are very good. He reached the peak of his career when he was with the Eagles. .

The top three players in the 2005 NBA draft

First place: chris paul.

Second place: Deron Williams.

Third place: Bynum

Chris paul is one of the greatest point guards in league history. Considering his excellent ball control ability and scoring skills, coupled with his terrible leadership and ball control ability, he is a once-in-a-lifetime talented player. Despite his short stature, chris paul has dominated his position for nearly 20 years. Chris paul was selected as an All-Star for 0/2 times, the best defensive team for 9 times and the best defensive team for 10 times in his career. Obviously, chris paul has locked in the Hall of Fame. The only achievement he lacks is the lack of a championship ring, which is a very likely dream to come true this year.

Deron Williams was also a dominant point guard at his peak. In his best years, he was selected as an All-Star for three times in a row. Deron Williams is a well-built point guard, with excellent scoring and organizing offensive ability. At his peak, he can be compared with chris paul. Bynum is different from both. Bynum and Pau Gasol formed the Lakers Twin Towers in Los Angeles, winning the championship twice in a row. Bynum had a chance to be a better center than Dwight Howard, but his lack of self-discipline and maturity ruined his basketball career.

The top three players in the 2006 NBA draft

First place: Lori

Second place: aldridge.

Third place: Rondo

As the point guard of the 20 19 NBA championship, Lori is an outstanding leader and a very hard-working player. Lori doesn't intend to be a real all-star and team leader, but he can always bring excellent defense and shooting at the crucial moment of the game. Besides Leonard, Lori was the most important player when the Raptors won the championship. So far in his career, he has averaged 14.8 points and 6.3 assists in four different teams.

Aldridge is currently a veteran of the Nets. In his last few years with Portland Trailblazers, he was arguably the best power forward in the league. As a 7-time all-star and 5-time all-star power forward, Aldridge is also an all-star starting power forward. Of course, two-time NBA champion point guard Rondo is also one of the best traditional point guards of his generation. His top player, organizing offensive and defensive ability is what many teams want.

The top three players in the 2007 NBA draft

First place: kevin durant.

Second place: Mark Gasol

Third place: mike conley.

Kevin durant is the best 15 player in history. He is a rare genius. As a four-time scoring champion, kevin durant is one of the few efficient and stable scorers in NBA history. When he joined the Warriors, he also won three finals and two championships.

Mark Gasol and mike conley were the best players in the 2007 draft. At his peak, Mark Gasol was the most dominant defensive player in the paint. He won the defensive player of the year and was selected as an All-Star three times. At that time, mike conley and Mark Gasol played together in Memphis Grizzlies, and they also led Memphis Grizzlies into the playoffs many times.

The top three players in the 2008 NBA draft

First place: Russell Westbrook.

Second place: Derycross

Third place: love.

No matter what people say about Russell Westbrook, he is already a great Hall of Famer. First of all, Russell Westbrook is one of the strongest guards in NBA history and one of the most explosive guards we have ever seen. Russell Westbrook won the MVP, two scoring titles, three assists and nine All-Stars. The key now is whether Russell Westbrook can find a way to help the Lakers win the championship and add an NBA championship title to his resume.

If his injury didn't change his career, derrick rose would be the best player in the 2008 draft. With excellent athletic talent and natural leadership temperament, Derek Cross, as the youngest MVP in the league history, was injured and Guidry Cross fell. Love is still worthy of respect, because he won the NBA championship with the Cavaliers in the 20 16 season and was selected as an all-star five times.

The top three players in the 2009 NBA draft

First place: Stephen Curry.

Second place: james harden.

Third place: Griffin

Who will be the best player in the 2009 draft? Of course, Stephen Curry has changed the way of basketball in the world, for better or worse. Stephen Curry is the greatest shooter of all time. As a member of Golden State Warriors, he won two regular season MVPs and three championships, and now he is still short of finals MVP.

James harden was also selected in 2009. He became the sixth member of the Oklahoma City Thunder in 20 12. When james harden joined the Houston Rockets, he became an all-star player there, and even won the league regular season MVP in 20 18 season. Griffin is one of the greatest dunks in NBA history. Although he was reimbursed for the season when he entered the league, he won the rookie of the year, six All-Stars and five teams, and won the dunk contest the following year.

Top three in 20 10 NBA draft class

First place: paul george.

Second place: john wall.

Third place: Cousin

John wall is the No.1 in 20 10. He is the most talented and potential player. But considering his endless injuries, it is obvious that paul george is the best player in this draft. Although paul george has experienced many injuries, he led a team to the West without Leonard in the playoffs last season, which proved his strength. If paul george can lead the Los Angeles Clippers to the championship, maybe he can lock the Hall of Fame in advance.

John wall is the best point guard in the league and the fastest when he is healthy. He was selected as an All-Star five times. Speaking of all-star players with unfortunate injury history, we have to think of Cousins, who is also a player whose career has declined due to injury. As a four-time All-Star insider, Cousins has also shifted in recent seasons.

2011top three players in the NBA draft class

First place: Leonard

Second place: kyrie irving.

Third place: klay thompson.

There is no doubt that the best player in the 20 1 1 draft is Leonard, who has won two NBA championships and two finals MVP. He is also one of the greatest defensive players of all time. Leonard has a chance to win his third championship in his third team, which will take him to a new height. He may become one of the greatest players of all time.

Although Carey Owen's thinking is a bit strange, which is hard for many fans and netizens to accept, there is no doubt that he is one of the best point guards ever. Carey Owen beat Stephen Curry in the 20 16 Finals and became one of the most important shots in NBA Finals history. He won the first championship in his career by virtue of his own ability. Klay thompson may be the second-ranked shooter in NBA history, and he is also one of the most iconic players of this generation.

Top three in 20 12 NBA draft class

First place: anthony davis.

Second place: Lillard.

Third place: Draymond Green.

Anthony davis was a talented inside player before he joined the Lakers to win the championship. As far as offensive ability is concerned, anthony davis is probably one of the most talented power forwards in NBA history. Of course, his physical advantage also played an important role, but his confrontation was still much worse.

Lillard unexpectedly entered the list of 75 NBA stars, although he is one of the greatest shooters in NBA history and has the scoring ability of a superstar. But Lillard lacks outstanding honor and achievements. In the past few years, Draymond Green has won three NBA championships.

Top three in 20 13 NBA draft class

First place: alphabet brothers

Second place: Gao Bo.

Third place: CJ mccollum

As a draft player in the first round of 20 13 15, Brother Alphabet has become one of the most terrible athletes in sports history. The letter brother is 6 feet 1 1 inch tall and has amazing arm span. He moves on the court as fast as a point guard. At present, it is already two-time MVP and NBA Finals MVP. He is still young and has a chance to win more championships.

Gao Bert, a three-time defensive player of the year, is the best traditional center in active service and the best defensive player this season. Although he was criticized for his lack of aggression in the game, there is no doubt that he is the most influential center in the game. CJ mccollum has always been a reliable scorer in his career, averaging more than 20 points for seven consecutive seasons and being traded to Pelican by the Blazers.

Top three in 20 14 NBA draft class

First place: Jokic.

Second place: Embiid

Third place: Zach Lavine.

Jokic brings hope to Denver Nuggets because he is showing his potential as a superstar. He may be the most unique center in NBA history. He conquered many fans with incredible three-point shooting, passing skills and attacking skills. He is an excellent scorer and passer.

Embiid is one of the MVP candidates this season. He was selected as an All-Star five times in six seasons. As the core leader of the 76ers, Embiid has great influence on the defensive end and he also has great influence on the offensive end. Embiid is already one of the most talented players in the history of the 76ers. If he can win this year's league regular season MVP, he will have a chance to enter the ranks of one of the greatest inside players in history, especially now that players like james harden are around him. Zach Lavine is now a real Chicago Bulls All-Star, and he has the potential to become a superstar. Zach Levin averaged 24.6 points per game, and has averaged more than 20 points in the past four seasons.

Top three in 20 15 NBA draft class

First place: Devon Booker

Second place: Downs

Third place: Porzingis

Devon Booker seems to have become famous earlier, and his performance of 70 points in a single game also made him break the youngest single-game scoring record in the history of the league. Devon Booker is an excellent scorer. So far, he has averaged more than 25 points for four consecutive seasons. Devon Buller, who entered the NBA finals last year, is ready to continue his crazy playoff campaign this season. Devon Booker is probably the second best shooting guard in active service.

Downs has just been elected as the third All-Star in his career. As a big shooter, he is an all-round player. Now Downs is the spokesman of Minnesota Timberwolves, and he continues to show why he has the potential to become a superstar, not just a three-point championship. Porzingis was finally sent away by Dallas Lone Ranger. Porzingis is one of the best inside players in the era of small ball, but he lacks excellent confrontation ability and is easily troubled by injuries.

Top three in 20 16 NBA draft class

First place: Jay Brown

Second place: Ingram

Third place: Ben Simmons.

The 20 16 draft player is the most interesting draft in recent years, because Ben Simmons is the problem champion. Jay Brown is by far the best player in this draft. Jay Brown has grown into a veritable all-star player, averaging more than 20 points in the past three years. He is the future of Boston Celtics.

Ingram is also an excellent player, averaging more than 22 points in New Orleans for three consecutive years. He has excellent personal offensive skills and excellent defense. He was called "Durant with a low profile", but he was troubled by Zion's injury and could not take off. In the end, Ben Simmons became one of the most ridiculous players in the league. Everyone expects Simmons to become a superstar, but he can't break through the shooting barrier and inspire all his potential.

Top three in 20 17 NBA draft class

First place: Tatum

Second place: Mitchell

Third place: Adebayor

Now Tatum is an excellent scorer, averaging 25.7 points this season, leading the Celtics to catch up in the second half of this season, hoping to enter the playoffs.

Mitchell has good athletic talent and excellent offensive ability. Mitchell, who has been selected as an All-Star for three times, is getting better and better to take over the game. He is the best player in Utah jazz. Adebayor is also a great player. So far, he has entered the NBA finals. He is an all-around inside player.

Top three in 20 18 NBA draft class

First place: Dancsics.

Second place: Treyan

Third place: Elton

Dancsics is also expected to become the best player or spokesperson in the league within four to five years. As a rare talented player in Slovenia, he has the skills and leadership to become the best player in the Championship team.

Treyan shines in Atlanta Hawks. Led the team to the playoff finals last season, averaging 27.8 points and 9.3 assists this season. Trey is also expected to be the next Stephen Curry in the future. Aidan helped the Suns reach the finals last year, and he will be one of the most terrible threats inside for the rest of his career.

Top three in 20 19 NBA draft class

First place: Jia Morant

Second place: Zion

Third place: Garland

Jia Zhangke has grown into a superstar. No one would have thought that a young point guard would make such great progress. Jia Morant is very similar to young Iverson. Jia Morant has incredible speed and offensive ability. This season, he averaged 26.8 points, 5.8 rebounds and 6.9 assists. Jia Morant started as an All-Star in the Western Conference at the age of 22.

Zion has great potential to become a world-class athlete. In his career, he was once elected as an All-Star. Once he recovers, he is likely to dominate the future league. Another amazing young player is Cleveland's Garland, who has been a little crazy in Cleveland recently. Garland is also selected as an All-Star for the first time, and he also has the opportunity to become a superstar in the future.

The top three players in the 2020 NBA draft class

First place: anthony edwards.

Second place: LaMelo Ball.

Third place: Desmond Bain

LaMelo Ball got a lot of hype in the draft in 2020, and many people thought he was overrated. Anthony edwards, the No.1 pick, has always been one of the best draft players in 2020. Anthony edwards averaged 265,438+0.9 points this season. He showed great threat on both ends of attack and defense, because his physical talent was too obvious.

LaMelo Ball was selected for this year's All-Star Team because he made great progress for the team. As an excellent passer and an excellent offensive player, he averaged 20.0 points and 7. 1 rebounds and 7.5 assists this season. Finally, Desmond Bain can be said to be the second best player in the Grizzlies, averaging 17.9 points this season.

Top three players in 202 1 NBA draft class

First place: Mobry.

Second place: scottie Barnes.

Third place: Wagner

So far, Mobry is the frontrunner for the best rookie of the season. Mobry is an excellent center. Although his defensive ability is excellent, his offensive skills are constantly improving. Starting 50 games this season, averaging 14.9 points and 8. 1 rebounds and 2.6 assists. Anyway, he should come first.

Scottie Barnes is one of the most amazing rookie players. He is already the starting forward of the Raptors. He can play at a high level in both offensive and defensive ends, and his aggressive attitude is surprising. Wagner is also an amazing rookie, averaging 15.6 points this season, which is regarded as one of the puzzles of Magic's future reconstruction.
