Wilt Chamberlain
Jokic is a straight up baller. I looked into his SportsVU data and he is basically a top 30 player in the NBA statistically. As a 20 year old rookie!

No Rising Stars game? Won't get a rise out of Justise Winslow
It seems like Justise Winslow, at age 19, takes an analytical approach to everything he does.
That's what he did when it came to getting snubbed by the NBA's assistant coaches for the Rising Stars Challenge, on Friday night of All-Star weekend in Toronto.
Only three rookies were selected for the 10 spots on the U.S. team, the same number that were selected for the World team.
So was he upset?
"No, not when I looked at the way it's set up," Winslow said, referencing the U.S. vs. World dynamic, which crowded the U.S. field. "Look at the three U.S. guys that made it."
That's Karl-Anthony Towns of the Minnesota Timberwolves, D'Angelo Russell of the Los Angeles Lakers, and Jahlil Okafor of the Philadelphia 76ers. Those were the top three picks in the 2015 draft, whereas Winslow went 10th.
"It just speaks for itself," Winslow said. "Those guys have been playing well, they have the best numbers. But they also are on some of the bottom teams in the league."
"So it's kind of, not pick your poison, but it's a tradeoff," Winslow said. "You know, I'll be in the playoffs and, most likely, those guys won't be"

Hayward needs to get outta Utah
that team is a point guard away(exum) from being a contender in a few years. they got one of the best, if not best, front courts in the league that consist of two elite interior defenders.

Nobody knows who he is though.
He needs to be in Boston.
