Can you build around Rockets star Jalen Green? NBA executives weigh in

As part of an annual poll conducted by Hoopshype, 15 league executives were asked to rank their top five players 25 or under to build a team around.

Other notables included Cleveland's Evan Mobley at No. 4, New Orleans' Zion Williamson at No. 6, and Toronto's Scottie Barnes at No.
