- Tyrone Keane PF 27 7'0'' 257 B+ B+ C A+ B B
2018 #4 overall pick by Utah.. found a new home in New York 5-6 years later...one of the top bigs in the league...very underated....can score, rebound, and block shots...his ratings look scary for a 7 footer...a mismatch nightmare for most bigs around the league...can step outside and hit a j anytime he wants...a great defender...bigs like him hard hard to find so that's why I think he's the MVP of this team.

- Antonio Ramsey SF 29 6'9'' 266 A- B+ C B B C
2019 #4 overall pick by Minnesota...traded Philly a year later and has been with the team ever since...he is a great scorer, hands down...quoted by Commissioner Spencer Martin, "he was supposed to be the next Karl Malone."...his scoring is definitely there and his rebounding has improved over the years...not a great defender but he gets the job done...has career averages of 30 pts, 10 boards, and 3 assists....and just like Malone, he has no ring yet despite how great he is.

2022 #4 overall picks by the Bobcats...has been with the team ever since....probably the best PG in the league....has mightily improved since his rookie year and has become an elite PG...a NASTY outside scorer, passer, and ball handler...an underated defender...what more can you ask from a PG?... he has become franchise player for Charlotte for many seasons but he's taking his talents to south beach next season.

Awards:
2026 - All-Star Rookie Game Participant
- Purnell Jackson PG 23 6'7'' 210 A- B A- B+ C C
2022 #5 overall pick...has been with the team ever since...it's true the Bulls have other valuable pieces like Dickerson, McGee, Paulson, and McCraken, but I think Jackson is the key for this teams future going forward....at 23 PJ is one of the best young PG's in the league...a tall PG who can do everything a wing could do but with better passing....a star for Chicago who was the MVP last season.

2021 #2 overall pick by Clippers...acquired by Indiana this past offseason from the Spurs...a beast inside presence and rebounder...not much of a defender though...currently averaging 27/14 for the rebuilding Pacers...his numbers might be inflated but he is still a beast you cant fuck with in the post...has career averages of 20/11 and also shoots a high fg%...not elite yet since defense is still a problem for him.
