NBA training camps open in approximately two weeks and, in short, it feels as if the season is right around the corner. To that end, basketball-driven outlets around the internet will begin unveiling lists of the top 100 players in the league (per tradition) and the first major list came to light on Monday morning.
Rob Mahoney and Ben Golliver of Sports Illustrated broke down players 100 through 51 on their list and Kent Bazemore represented the Atlanta Hawks at No. 91 overall.
Bazemore (12.9 PPG, 3.8 RPG, 3.5 APG) is the NBA’s anti-Forrest Gump: He has an uncanny knack for always just missing out on the action.
