NBA players voted on the most overrated player in the league: Alperen Şengün — 12.3% Rudy Gobert — 8.6% Trae Young — 8.6% Karl-Anthony Towns — 7.4% Paolo Banchero — 4.9% Ja Morant — 4.9% Deni Avdija — 3.7% Scottie Barnes — 3.7% Luka Dončić — 3.7% Pascal Siakam — 3.7% Dillon Brooks — 2.5% Tyrese Haliburton — 2.5% Tyler Herro — 2.5% Evan Mobley — 2.5% Brandin Podziemski — 2.5% Domantas Sabonis — 2.5%
News flash - a league of mostly American players thinks non American players are generally overrated.
you want to be the GM that signs Sengun at 16th, not the GM who trades him away for peanuts and Giannis
fwiw: here’s the vote tally for 81 voters: Total votes = 81. Then each vote is: 1/81 = 1.2346% So, 10 players need to be reported … 12.3% → 10/81 = 12.35% 8.6% → 7/81 = 8.64% 7.4% → 6/81 = 7.41% 4.9% → 4/81 = 4.94% 3.7% → 3/81 = 3.70% 2.5% → 2/81 = 2.47%
This. The article says few players voted, and the main comment was that Sengun complains too much to the refs (okay, that I agree with; how many times have I startled my wife while watching the games when I blurt out, "Aspirin, will you shut up and just play? Jeez-us!!!!") If Eric Gordon were taller. And younger. And, uh, Turkey-er. "You hold an elephant's balls......like this!"
if this vote was before the playoffs, if polled now, that 12% would skyrocket dude got locked up by Deandre Ayton…
