Top 25 NBA Players Under 25

Snubbed tf outta Scottie🤣 cmon Matt that was crazy. So many players mentioned after him that he’s better and more proven than

[@noblevenom2858]

Scottie could average 25-8-7 next year and people will continue saying he has hit his ceiling. They said the same thing last year then he had a huge jump going from 15-7-5 to 20-8-6

[@ivwakeup]

How do you rate Santi Aldama?

[@IMTOFRIAS]

Scottie at 14 is a crime man, same with wemby over ant at this time. Also no RJ Barrett is kinda weird to would have had him over IQ as he’s younger and played really well after the trade!

[@1800LUNATIC]

Mobley over Scottie is criminal.

[@1800LUNATIC]

scottie is so much better on offence it isnt even close. He averaged 20pts and 6ast this past year

[@Kenyonkicks]

Nope, the Value Mobley brings on both sides of the ball is much more valuable in the league nowadays

[@rs-by1dt]

deluded

[@dmo-6]

Mobley is better

[@frog9248]

Scottie is a far better scorer and playmaker, mobley is def the better defender but scottie is elite as a backline sweeper and has shown far more on offence.

[@normantucci5970]

Scottie needs to be top 5

[@JadenDior]

shaedon sharpe should be here he was averaging 20 before his injury, and his ceiling is much higher than some guys here

[@thehighvibe5528]

cam thomas on the spurs would be lit -- great video

[@bboyizzy]

Sengun should be ahead of cade

[@Totalsau]

Naz Reid Snubbed

[@aidanstanley4606]

Huge rockets fan here after watching Jalen green play for 3 years now I have no fucking clue if he’s any good still

[@shxtevoYT]

Hopefully we will find out next season

[@KingScrDaIII]

No HM for Naz Reid? As a Timberwolves fan he was our only bright spot against the mavs

[@maxserafini8127]

he’s better a lot of those guys right now but the long term potential

[@Henry_Chicken]

what is the factor that makes jalen Williams a top 10 guy, but RJ someone who misses the cut? Same age, similar numbers. Jdub is a great catch and shoot 3 point shooter, but his on ball shooting isn't as good. Neither's defense is game breaking. Jdub gets to play off of an MVP candidate and a perfect modern center

[@Henry_Chicken]

also, deni defenitely showed a leap this year, but putting him over guys that have proven themselves their entire career and are around the same age makes no sense to me. Herro has won 6th man of the year and is just a year older, barrett is the same age and has been far better throughout his career. Lively is the 3rd/4th most impactful player on a championship team. etc.

[@bkelly625]

JDub was literally top 3 in the league in pull up jump shooting efficiency and one of the most efficient isolation scorers in the league so you are just saying sht lol. He’s also way ahead of RJ in basically every advanced stat and he was in year 2 while RJ was in year 5. Also way more athletic than RJ and his defense is great and praised around the league you just don’t watch the Thunder

[@Willisaint]

Was about to respond with the same thing the other guy did. Pretty sure his effeciency on pull up 3s was 40% his rookie szn and was 42% this season. If you watch his games he is also taking toughhhhhhhh shots

[@O.Z123]

The Deni love is finally here 👏👏👏👏

[@grantrobinson8179]

Devin Vassell not being on the list puzzles me, as he's been better than each of your first 7 players (19-25). I get that the others may have a bit more potential, but he's already proven to be a good defender that can put up points at good efficiency. Some of the others aren't there yet.

[@Idk_tbh20]

If Vassell had more opportunities to iso he'd average 25+ no doubt. 3 level scorer playing on the team with the least isos.

[@mmf2k]

Low on Rockets. Thanks for the Vid Matt GG

[@Cectio]

Miller over jjj is insane

[@EvanGoeke]

Fax JJJ should be top 10

[@michaelli9857]

your take on Scottie B is way off IMO.He's an offensive and defensive playmaker. Think he should be ahead of lamelo, mobley and Cade personally.

[@frog9248]

As a raps fan him being behind Mobley and cade is gross. But lamelo when fully healthy is that guy

[@Spartan-gt8pv]

Would love to have you on my podcast

[@stephencrocker7831]

Worried about Keegan's potential as he made a huge leap defensively in year 2, proved he can get better and progress more over the guys 25-20 guys

[@davidtorres-ze5wz]

You missed Jalen Suggs

[@sarj4918]

💯

[@Ryan-gq7bf]

Don't u dare diss my hornets king lamelo. He's prolly top 8 at least if healthy which is something you should follow because this list is based on potential

[@Willisaint]

B.Miller is better

[@bennwokeleme7217]

Have Deni above Vassell is crazy

[@O.Z123]

Deni has a much higher ceiling as a two way player

[@bennwokeleme7217]

@user-dj2yj2db5q no he doesn't. Maybe as a defender but vassell is the better 3pt shooter, the better mid range shooter, better at getting to the rim and is just crafier in general. Vassell is even a good passer. Deni does not have the offensive upside of vassell and if you think so you must not watch spurs basketball

[@O.Z123]

@@bennwokeleme7217 Deni has shot the same % as vassell from 3 Deni is the better passer better defender and he has a way higher basketball iq the only thing holding Deni back is the mid range and going more to his off hand if he works on that this off season he’ll solidify himself as a true franchise piece

[@bennwokeleme7217]

@user-dj2yj2db5q lol same efficiency but vassell takes twice as many 3's , I see you left that part out. Also Devin is a really good passer, he averaged 4.1 assists to Deni's 3.8. I will say Deni is very slightly better but it is really close and arguable. Deni is the better defender tho but Devin is no slouch either. But as a scorer, Devin is way way way better. In mid range, getting to the rim, off the dribble 3pt shots, shots going to his left or right. There is no way Deni touches Devin's scoring ability. It isn't close at all. So calling Deni the better 2 way player or even saying he has the higher 2 way upside if just ignorant. It shows you don't know Devin's game. I would take Devin any day of the week because he is a good passer, above average defender, and his scoring is leagues above Deni's and he takes 2 times the 3's Deni takes.

[@O.Z123]

@@bennwokeleme7217 i agree on the scoring part I even said so myself I just think vassel has hit his ceiling and Deni hasn’t

Glaze of Mobley over Scottie is crazy. Scottie averaged 20/6 this year. Mobley might never do that. I am certain that Scottie will have a couple seasons of being in DPOY discussions down the line. The gap offensively is bigger then the gap defensively

[@bonezo8008]

Scottie barnes is so much better offensively than mobley, its much easier to build around mobley, but scottie is a great defender but the offensive gap especially in the long term, makes me think scottie projects as a better player becuase you also get a jumpshot so he can space and pass and do everyrhing for you
