Some good names people have suggested already. Fox was a guy that came to mind.

Just looking at the standings and therefore teams here is another guy that could get there and come out of nowhere to do it is Pascal Siakam

Here are my top 5 :

1. Y Antetokounmpo (hard to stop/great defender)
2. K Leonard (good offense/great defense)
3. S Curry (best shooter ever/teams' whole Def plan revolves around slowing him down)
4. J Harden (almost impossible to stop on O/not the terrible defender he once was)
5. K Durant/J Embiid (If healthy, they make a big Impact on both Offense & Defense)

Don't understand how Lebron can even be considered a Top 5 "overall" player now. When I watch him, he gives up tons of layups & stuff, because he'd rather stand there saving his energy on D, so he can pad his offensive stats.

Like I said... Harden is not the bad defender he once was, and he averaged 36 a game on offense. Plus he was #2 in steals per game last year. I've seen LeBron just stand there and watch guys get layups too many times last year. Most of the game he just rests on that end now, which is one reason the Lakers struggled so much last season.

Joel Embiid has become the most overrated player in basketball.
