In today's NBA, fans are spoiled with today's generational talent. Leaving fans and young athletes often wondering: How?

Last night Darius Garland scored 51 points vs the Minnesota Timberwolves connecting for 10 3’s! But how many players out there study Darius Garlands game? Should you study his game?

We won’t get to answer that question in this episode but we will share 10 NBA players who are worth studying based on basketball IQ, play making, scoring ability, body management, individual success, team success and skill.

Early this morning we spoke to Ralph Nazaire known as @e.zaire about who young basketball players should mirror their games after. As a performance coach and speed trainer working with different athletes is part of his work to understand different playing styles.

A few honorable mentions in this episode include Trae Young, Kyle Lowry, Marcus Smart, Stephen Curry, Andre Miller & Allen Iverson. We explicitly chose players 6’0-6’4 and stayed away from players with the unicorn tag.

A lot of NBA players are just 1 of 1, and we should honor their unique greatness. Will we ever see a player shoot like Curry? Play like KD or score like Kobe? - The chances are slim.

But there are so many NBA players out there that have had tons of individual and team success on the biggest stage in basketball. This is just part one, we’ll definitely follow up this conversation in the future!
