Al Jefferson listed in Sports Illustrated's Top 100 NBA Players

Al Jefferson is coming off a rough season. Was his ranking too high, and can he fit in today's NBA?

Al Jefferson has had an interesting time with the Charlotte Hornets to say the least. His first season with the team led to a career outburst that nobody had ever seen from him before, and made many wonder what he would do in his debut, and while a drop off was expected it wasn't supposed to be to the level he reached. An injury riddled 2014 led to inconsistent play from Jefferson, and his inability to stay in the starting lineup took a toll on the team as a whole.
