Top 6 NBA Players 26 & Under: Who Owns the Future of the League?

The future of the NBA might already be here. Ahead of the Pacers and Timberwolves meeting in preseason action at Iowa State, Brad and Ryan rank their Top 6 NBA players age 26 or younger — a list featuring two of the biggest stars taking the floor in Ames: Tyrese Haliburton and Anthony Edwards. But where do they rank among the league’s best young superstars? We debate a loaded group of players who aren’t just positioned to become the future faces of the NBA — many of them are already defining the league right now. Who would you build a franchise around? Who has the highest ceiling? Where do Ant and Hali belong? And is the No. 1 player on our list not just the best player 26 or younger… but potentially the best basketball player on the planet, period? The future — and maybe the present — of the NBA is here.
