While Tim Hardaway Jr..'s numbers may not be eye popping, anybody who has seen him play might have wondered why he isn't hailed as one of the biggest stars in the league.

Unfortunately, the presence of Luka Doncic and Kristaps Porzingis has meant that Hardaway has never received the recognition he deserves from the NBA community.
