What are your unpopular opinions about players 25 and younger?

  1. Lonzo Ball is the most underrated player in the NBA. His defense is stellar as is his passing and basketball IQ, and he’s not a bad shooter at all even though many people consider him one because he’s struggled at times and his shot looks odd AF. Put a healthy Lonzo on Chicago last year and they win a playoff series no doubt.

  2. Josh Giddey is going to make an All-NBA team. Giddey is already a decent player but just hasn’t really put it all together yet. He’s already one of the best passers in the league and a pretty good rebounder for a guard. I could see him lead the league in APG one day no doubt.

Side note: when looking up NBA 25 and under I couldn’t believe Gary Trent Jr was on the list. I’d have guessed that dude is like 28. Feels like he’s been around forever lol
