Top 10 NBA players for 2019-20 season

#8 Joel Embiid

Joel Embiid

The Cameroonian Center is such a dominant force on both ends of the floor that he has drawn many comparisons to top 5 Center of all-time Hakeem Olajuwon. He averaged 28 points, 14 rebounds and 2 blocks per game last season which shows that Embiid is a monster in the low-post and can consistently knock down mid-range plus 3-point jumpers.

On the defensive end, there are few who can protect the paint like him. So now that he'll be joined by another elite rim protector in Al Horford, the Sixers have a great chance of making the NBA Finals next season following the weakening of the Raptors and Bucks rosters.

#7 Paul George

Paul George

By successfully being recruited to the Clippers by Kawhi Leonard, Paul George can continue to thrive in his MVP-caliber form along with the reigning Finals' MVP. PG13 is a fabulous all-round two way player.

This is shown by his career-high average of 28 points per game last season whilst being nominated for the Defensive Player of the Year Award that was won by Rudy Gobert.

#6 Anthony Davis

Los Angeles Lakers Introduce Anthony Davis

Finally a part of the Lakers and teammate to LeBron James, Anthony Davis can resume his dominance as the best big man in the league. At his best, AD is an MVP-caliber player who has no equal at his position on either end of the floor. He's averages 28 points, 12 rebounds and 3 blocks per game.

He is one of the best scorers, rebounders and rim protecters in the league. The most important thing for "The Brow" and the Lakers is staying healthy by managing his minutes appropriately.
