Ranking the Top 10 Shooting Guards entering the 2019/20 NBA Season

#2 Klay Thompson

Klay Thompson

Whilst Klay will probably be out until the All-Star break, he is still expected to return and continue on as the 2nd best shooting guard in the league. Thompson is arguably the second-best shooter ever after teammate Steph Curry and perhaps second to none at spot-up shooting.

Also, he has a superb mid-range game and is smart at finishing around the rim. Meanwhile on defense, he is one of the best perimeter defenders in the league so altogether the 3-time NBA Champ is which makes him one of the best two-way players in the game.

#1 James Harden

James Harden

"The Beard" had the best scoring season since Michael Jordan in the 1986-87 season last year by averaging a whopping 36.1 points per game! He has one of the most unstoppable offensive moves of all-time in his lethal step-back 3-pointer. However, James Harden is also incredible at scoring at the rim- largely because he's the best in the league at drawing contact and getting to the free throw line.

Furthermore, his passing is as good as any point guard which basically makes him the most well-rounded and best offensive player in the NBA. By being reunited with former OKC backcourt partner Russell Westbrook, Harden has a chance to co-lead the Rockets to the NBA Finals if they manage to beat the two LA teams.
