The promise Tatum showed in his rookie season has finally formed into a consistent superstar. His game should age well over the length of the supermax contract he signed, which means he could still return a ransom should the Nuggets decide to trade him down the line. Jokic’s immense value was put to the ultimate test when he propped up a team of mostly role players last season to nearly 50 wins in a stacked conference. That idea has several franchises sleeping poorly at night for not selecting him when they had the chance.

We also added several of the top selections in the 2023 draft since they are certainly among the most coveted players in the league. Also, recent trades such as the Wolves’ acquisition of Rudy Gobert have influenced where several available All-Stars such as Kevin Durant and Donovan Mitchell rank.
The biggest changes in this edition include movement for players that got new contracts either in free agency or through an extension. The ranking will be updated constantly as events such as new contracts, injuries, and changes in performance occur. We arrived at this conclusion after weighing factors such as a player’s talent, age, availability, positional scarcity, current salary, and what their next contract could look like. The HoopsHype staff voted on these players and compiled this list.
With free agency mostly completed, we’ve provided a major update to the HoopsHype Trade Value Rankings.
