On November 6, today ESPN announced the latest strength list. The top ten are: 1 Thunder, 2 Spurs, 3 Nuggets, 4 Lakers, 5 Rockets, 76ers, 7 Cavaliers, 8 Bulls, 9 Bucks, 10 Pistons. The Western Conference teams occupy the top five. From here we can also see how competitive the Western Conference is this season. In addition, today the NBA officially announced the top ten rookie rankings. After all, the official list is more authoritative and fair. Next, let's take a look at who is in the top ten of this list.
Tenth Derek Quinn

Quinn is the 14th pick in the first round. He is a small inside man. Due to Zion's absence recently, Quinn has got more playing opportunities. He has also proved himself, averaging 8 points per game so far this season. 5.3 rebounds, 1.1 assists and 1 steal. This is an average of 17 minutes per game. Although Quinn has no space ability, he is very good at killing with the ball. His playing style is forward, similar to the Timberwolves' Reed, and he may become an excellent immediate player in the future.
Ninth Kalkbrenner

This is the No. 4 pick in the second round. The center that the Lakers originally wanted to win was intercepted by the Hornets. They probably wanted to avenge their unilateral rejection of the Ma Wei trade, but unexpectedly, Huang The Bees won their starting center. So far this season, Kalkbrenner has averaged 9.1 points, 7.1 rebounds, 1.3 steals, and 2.4 blocks per game. His field goal percentage is 82.9%, ranking first in the league. Although he has no space ability, his inside kills and defense are excellent.
Eighth Boyles

Boyles was the No. 9 pick in the first round. Although the Raptors had a group of potential forwards, they also won Boyles. It also caused a lot of controversy at the time. Now it seems that the Raptors have a good draft vision. Although the forwards have many talents, who is willing to give up a good enough talent? Averaging 9.2 points, 3.3 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 1 steal per game so far this season, and shooting 43% from three-point range, Boyles has the opportunity to become a top 3D.
Seventh Trey Johnson

Johnson was the No. 6 pick in the first round. He was originally considered to be the best scorer in this class. His scoring ability is indeed very good, but because he has always been the main substitute in the Wizards, he has no Although he has received enough ball rights, he has fully demonstrated his offensive talents. This season, Johnson averaged 12.6 points, 3.4 rebounds, 1.6 assists and 0.9 blocks per game. He averaged 2.1 three-pointers per game. The Wizards should give him more opportunities.
Sixth Phils

Phils is the No. 7 pick in the first round. He and Quinn are both players selected by the Pelicans. Recently, the Pelicans put Phils into the starting lineup. He has fully demonstrated his offensive and defensive abilities. After all, maybe the Pelicans should give up on Zion. They already have the capital to rebuild. Fiers averaged 13.3 points, 2.6 rebounds, 3.3 assists and 1.4 steals per game this season. Although he sometimes plays very uniquely, his star temperament is outstanding and is worth cultivating.
Fifth Harper

Harper has suffered injuries recently and his name may not appear on the list in the next few weeks. However, there is no doubt about his strength. The Spurs can play excellent games this season. In terms of record, Harper is indispensable. He is the team's only point guard. His ability to control the field and kill with the ball are excellent. He is now a qualified ball-handling core. This season, he averaged 14 points, 4 rebounds and 3.8 assists per game, and shot 50% from the field.
Fourth Knipur

He was the No. 4 pick in the first round. When the Hornets selected Knipur, many fans were not optimistic about him and thought he was just a pure shooter with no other abilities. However, they did not expect that after the start of this season, Knipur Nippur gave everyone more surprises. He handles the ball very well, his shooting is too stable, and his playing style is also very calm. He is much more mature than most rookies. This season, he averaged 14.8 points, 5.8 rebounds, and 2.3 assists per game. He shot 41% from three-point range and averaged 3.1 three-pointers per game.
Third Flagg

The number one pick Flagg has improved compared to the previous period. Although he still struggles on the ball-handling forward line, he has begun to show his talent, and based on recent observations of Flagg, he has the potential to become a ball-handling forward line. His organizational ability and overall view have improved. Although he is struggling now, as long as he gets through it, the future will be bright. Flagg averaged 13.6 points, 6.3 rebounds and 3 assists per game this season.
Second Coward

Coward is probably familiar to many fans. The Grizzlies sent out the No. 16 pick + 1 future first-round pick + 1 future second-round pick in exchange for the Trail Blazers' No. 11 pick. Because of Yang Hansen, he is well known. Now relying on his stable shooting and excellent defensive ability, many people now believe that after Morant is traded, he will be corrected. This season he averaged 15.3 points, 5 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 1 steal per game, and shot 48% from three-point range.
First Edgecombe

There is no dispute that Edgecombe is ranked first. His performance is too good. Although he has reduced the ball rights recently, in the limited opportunities to take shots, his damage is still very powerful, and He played very reasonably, but with the return of Embiid and George, it is estimated that his ball rights will be further reduced and his data will decline. So far this season, he has averaged 19.1 points, 5.9 rebounds, 4.9 assists and 1.6 steals per game, with a three-point shooting rate of 44% and an average of 2.6 three-pointers per game.
