20. Damian Lillard, PG, Portland Trail Blazers
I’m sure getting cut from Team USA will only be used as motivation for Lillard to have a big year.
19. Klay Thompson, SG, Golden State Warriors
May be an even better shooter than his splash brothers partner in crime.
18. Marc Gasol, C, Memphis Grizzlies
No better passing big than Marc Gasol. We expect Gasol to have a huge year for the soon-to-be free-agent.
17. Kyrie Irving, PG, Cleveland Cavaliers
Playing with Team USA over the summer, Irving showed no problem leading a team. LeBron and Love should be very excited about their point guard.
16. Joakim Noah, C, Chicago Bulls
The best defender in the NBA.
