Which players defined the past 10 NBA seasons?
We asked this question to a panel of ESPN's NBA experts: Who was the player of the decade? Voters ranked their top three picks in order -- considering the 2009-10 season through 2018-19 -- and here are the results.
LeBron James was an overwhelming pick at No. 1, with a tight race between former teammates Stephen Curry and Kevin Durant for Nos. 2 and 3.
Three members of our panel -- Kirk Goldsberry, Kevin Pelton and Tim Bontemps -- highlight what made each of these three players a defining superstars of the 2010s.
