#3 Kristaps Porzingis

Phoenix Suns v New York Knicks
Kristaps Porzingis

Kristaps Porzingis was drafted 4th overall by the New York Knicks in June 2015. Porzingis's numbers were not eye-popping for past two seasons. However, this season he is displaying his greatness on the court averaging 30.4 PPG, 7.3 RPG, and 2.3 BPG. Also, he is shooting 41.1% from the three-point line and 84% from the free throw line.

Based on this season, Porzingis is shooting better than Kyrie Irving from the three-point line and better than James Harden at the free throw line. Although the comparison is solely based on first 10 games, this is still phenomenal for a 7 feet big man. Lastly, he is dragging the struggling Knicks to a record of 6-5 (they started 0-3) and this clearly indicates how good he is.
