None of these guys have even had their Jordan Year yet??
The next generation of NBA stars is incredibly promising, and many of them are still young enough to be undergraduate students in college.
Before the NBA’s 2022-23 season officially begins Tuesday night, we’ve decided to rank the 23 best players who are under 23 years old. But why 23? Well, it is not just because that was the number worn by Michael Jordan.
Typically, NBA publications rank 25 players under 25 years old. You can read versions of that here, here, and here. I wanted to try a similar thought experiment, but U25 was too much of a challenge because it is such a wide population.
By the time NBA players are 25 years old, many have already graduated to their second contract and are in vastly different chapters of their careers than the league’s young players. It is harder to compare players like Luka Doncic and Jayson Tatum, who will each earn more than $30 million next season, to players on rookie scale contracts.
The field was more level by focusing on just the NBA’s youngest stars.
For this exercise, all players included must be born after Feb. 1, 2000. We chose that date because the listed age on Basketball Reference is how old a player is on Jan. 31 of each season. NOTE: That means players like Darius Garland (who was born on Jan. 26, 2000) and Tyler Herro (born on Jan. 20, 2000) were excluded.
The following rankings are predictions for next season and not beyond.
