The US media rearranged the top 100 players in the active league: Jokic changed hands as the number one player, and James and KD’s ranking plummeted!

12:36am, 9 October 2025【Basketball】

On October 8, with the start of the NBA preseason, the US media also wanted to seize the last wave of traffic. ESPN previously selected the top 100 active stars, which caused quite a lot of controversy at that time. Recently, the well-known US media HoopsHype also selected the top 100 active stars. The result can be imagined. This time the controversy is also very controversy. Next, let’s see if the top 100 active stars rearranged by the US media is reasonable.

91-100

91 is Lefty, 92 is Holiday, 93 is Keegan Murray, 94 is Castle, 95 is Mathering, 96 Wiggins, 97 Aldama, 98 Bridges, 99 Barrett, 100 Jerome. Holiday's ranking has also dropped seriously due to his poor performance last season. Wiggins' performance was not good last season, but to be honest, it feels a bit unreasonable to rank him behind Castle last season.

81-90

81 is Harris, 82 is George, 83 is Doulter, 84 is Kamara, 85 is Nemhard, 86 is Boltel, 87 is Braun, 88 is Aaron Wiggins, 89 is Flag, and 90 is Brandon Miller. As a player with an annual salary of more than 50 million yuan, George's ranking is so low because of his poor performance last season. Flag, the new No. 1 pick, has received such high recognition before he even played. His talent is indeed worth looking forward to.

71-80

71 are Ingram, 72 Jaylen Durham, 73 McDann, 74 Terry Murphy, 75 Hunter, 76 Sages, 77 CJ McCollum, 78 Anthony Simmons, 79 Irving, 80 Shedensharp. Due to injury, Irving fell to this position. If you look at his performance last season alone, Irving may be able to enter the top 20 in the league. Young talents such as Hunter and Sargers will definitely have the opportunity to improve their ranking in the future.

61-70

61 are Kobe White, 62 Vucevic, 63 Porter Jr., 64 Jaylen Green, 65 Porzingis, 66 Gidey, 67 Aaron Gordon, 68 Naz Reed, 69 Prichard, 70 Harten. Kobe White is higher. Although he averaged 20+ games in the past few seasons, his efficiency is not outstanding. He relies more on absolute ball rights. Gidey should be ahead of him in terms of his performance last season. Jaylen Green, the cornerstone of the Rockets in the past few years, was only ranked in the same level as the top blue-collar workers.

51-60

51 are Hart, 52 Reeves, 53 Cameron Johnson, 54 Raven, 55 Bain, 56 Avdia, 57 Jaylen Johnson, 58 Markanen, 59 Daniels, 60 Powell. As the former All-Star point guard, Laven has poor performance in leading the team in the past few seasons and has been questioned a lot, so his ranking has also dropped seriously. Markanen is definitely low in this position. He has been selected as the All-Star, and he should be ahead of Reeves no matter what.

41-50th place

41 are Anunobi, 42 Butler, 43 DeRozan, 44 Jarrett Allen, 45 Amen Thompson, 46 Zion, 47 Gobert, 48 three goals, 49 Chett, and 50 Turner. Butler sacrificed his data for joining the Warriors last season, which also brought him into doubt. Butler also has the level of top 30 players in the league. Amen Thompson was selected for the Best Defence last season and is now considered one of the opportunities to become a future facade.

31-40

31 is Maxi, 32 is Jalen Jackson, 33 Garland, 34 Randall, 35 Adebayo, 36 Jamalmurray, 37 Herro, 38 Barnes, 39 Leonard, 40 Bridges. This is the All-Star player, and they are all outside the top 30. It is estimated that many fans are already very interested in the top 30 players. Although Leonard has no peak now, he still has this ability as a top 20 goalkeeper.

21-30

21 is Shinkin, 22 is Durant, 23 is Embiid, 24 Sabonis, 25 Harden, 26 Morant, 27 Fox, 28 Wagner, 29 Zubac, 30 Derek White. Relying on his outstanding performance in the European Championships, Shin Kyung has now entered the top 20 in the league and even surpassed Durant. He said that Durant will become the second leader next season? Embiid's injury also caused him a lot of doubts.

11-20

11 are Curry, 12 are Siakam, 13 Mobley, 14 Towns, 15 Banchero, 16 Thick Brows, 17 Jaylen Brown, 18 Booker, 19 James, 20 Trae Young. This level is either the core of the young team or the top second in command. Neither Jan Duku is included in the top ten, but Curry's ranking is acceptable in comparison, but James and Durant's ranking has dropped too much.

1-10th place

No. 1 is Alexander, and Jokic is squeezed to the second place by him, because one championship and one FMVP surpass Jokic. To be honest, this ranking is still to be discussed. The third is Antetokounmpo, No. 4 Doncic, No. 5 Edwards, No. 6 Brunson, No. 7 Mitchell, No. 8 Cunningham, No. 9 Vanbanyama, No. 10 Jewway. Thunder and the others entered the top ten. To be honest, Jewei was ranked in this position, maybe it was a bit high. Having said that, what do you want to say about this ranking? Welcome to leave a message for discussion.
