Gary Trent JR openly admitted he was depressed in Portland. He often looked like he was going to be good, so it's no surpirse that with a change of scenary he would excel. As for Maxey I feel like if you watched him at Kentucky or even in the limited minutes he received his rookie year you'd know he was going to be good aswell. Great vid Andy, you inspire me to stay on my grind.
I'd be depressed too if I had to live in Portland
My buddy moved to Portland after highschool from California and he said he learned what seasonal depression is out there
@@Jaykerz whats so bad about Portland tho😂
What being in Portland does to a mf
@@trolln_ Ask Dame🤣
You could add Jalen Brunson to this list. He has progressed drastically over the last few seasons
He had a $100 contract he should be playing to this level at this point
@@Rubbabandman everybody thought his contract was a overpay but 27points this first game in the playoffs says otherwise
Lauri Markkanen and the Jazz has to be the biggest surprise this season so far
You love to see it. It's a team of guys that were being told to play in playstyles that didn't suit them, now we're seeing them at their best cause they play to their strengths.
Agreed. In Chicago he was a joke. Played no defense. Rarely took his game into the paint, and tried to shoot way too many threes. In Utah, he’s shooting better than ever, taking his game into the paint a lot, and even playing defense for a change. Hoiberg, Boylen, and Donovan made a huge mistake trying to make a beefy 6’11 into a pure shooter with no focus on any other usage of his talents. Now look at what Will Hardy is doing with him. FINALLY clearly developing him in a much better way. Guy is a solid candidate for MIP now.
It's a bit of a surprise, but Lauri was averaging 18 & 9 in his second season. Then for whatever reason, the coach Jim Boylen decided his 7 footer with a post game and willingness to grab rebounds should stay on the perimeter.
The last 3 seasons he hasn't been allowed to play his game and suited up at the 3 in Cleveland.
Will Hardy letting Lauri be him
SGA may be the most underrated star in the whole league right now.
Yez man absolutely beast! I mean he didn't even get into all-star last year. Is absurd
Not the fastest guard, but he's smart with the ball.
@@rawg6606 His first step is pretty good but he’s not one to show bursts of speed in transition that’s forsure
i don’t know if him being the #1 or the deflacto pg translate to W’s but all ik he puts on a master las or creation every game
Not underrated at all
Absolutely the most wide open league in years and many players are having truly out of the blue seasons statistically , looking forward to the spring and having a great playoff year of the league
Desmond Bane is making huge strides. I'm happy you put him in your list
he was insane last season brah.
@@jamesnguyen7069 I agree... but he is getting even better!
The true MIP from last season, even Ja agrees
Dejounte Murray has been so fun to watch this year in Atlanta with him and Trae leading the way. Multiple games of 20 and 10+ Assists from those guys has put Atlanta at the forefront of the East. If I was other eastern conference teams, I’d watch out for Atlanta.
smh they was susposed to be trash it was so obvious that backcourt was lethal 💀
Lmao watch out
czcams.com/video/PTJVMojeBLM/video.html
Lol
The most wide open league year in several years!!! Can’t wait for spring and a whole bunch of Game 7s to come with it!!
Past 3 years have been pretty good for parity if you ignore that the warriors won the title again
"His break was ben simmons being soft" -Andy
🤣🤣🤣
Yall roasts are brutal
A lot of us in Philly already knew Tyrese had this type of potential inside of them. The problem was is playing with joelle, tobias, james, and other guys he wasn't able to get as many shots. With James and Joel being out he finally has a chance to shine. A lot of people are saying we got the still of the draft that year
Andy, some videos suggestions should be how the NBA almost went bankrupt in the '70s, Kobe's first season after Shaquille trade, players who overachieved during their careers
We knew he had this level of potential as a slasher and finisher, but not only is he statistically the second best fast break scorer behind Giannas, but he is one of the best shooters in the league. He was 43% on 4 attempts last seasons, is currently sitting at 44% on 8 attempts, after shooting 30% his rookie season
damn good suggestions
After the draft I watched some videos of Maxey. It only took me a few minutes and I was convinced that he was a great pick. He has a positive attitude and the work ethic to become better.
In his rookie season Maxey had some great performances. He really showed up when he was asked to. There was that game where most starters were out due to covid. Maxey carried the team in that game. While most fans saw it as a pleasant great performance of a young player, Maxey proved to himself, the coaches and team mates that he is ready.
So when the Ben saga took off I knew Maxey was ready to accept the challenge as he just waited to show the world what he is capable to do.
imagine the phillies losing in the world series to a rookie
@@TxchnoTikToks we didn't " lose" to a rookie. At least be accurate if you're going to troll.
Dejounte Murray is having one heck of a season and he was a borderline all star last year , just incredible
he was an all-star last year…
@@Mystic-Occultist he got in via injury replacement. Its not looked at the same as say Wiggins earning All Star Starter. Str8 voted in
@@AuraDivinity but history doesn’t care ab that. when his story is said and done, he was an all-star in 2022. by your logic, the cavs don’t have an all-star center when that’s factually incorrect
Crazy season already!!! Glad to be part of it and still be watching!!
I'm not surprised by SGA's rise to stardom, for he improved a lot when he played with CP3 and has been getting better and better ever since.
Love to see everyone succeed!! We don’t hate on it!!
Definitely always to see Andy Hoops Saturday videos
Nice work, Andy!
JPoole got the opportunity and he delivered🔥
You love to see Tyrese Maxey succeed rn!😊 🔥🏀
Never too early for Andy's vids
Tyrese Maxey for sure is having one of his best statistical seasons in the league , averaging 24 PPG , i mean he’s definitely taking that next step offensively
Great Video as always Bro. I wanna see how Poole will “modify” his game after the league officials are closely watching his handle for carrying the ball.
The fact that two of the guys on this list were/is under Pop is insane and then you have Kawhi as well just shows how amazing at developing players truly the GOAT

Loonie walker on the lakers has been a really good addition, he’s like a better Malik Monk
No one wants to give him credit. He is one of the few bright spots on the lakers
He's not showing anything different than what he showed in San Antonio though. Dude was a defensive threat and super athletic there too. He could get real hot from range, but he never showed that he could consistently do it. Remains to be seen if he can pick up his shooting and keep it as hot as it has been last couple of games.
@@ktvindicare he’s doing great and taking advantage of the incredible opportunity and he has not slowed down since starting this hot
Can i add to that list? Lauri markannen also make a huge jump to his game. From a third or fourth option in cleveland he hop on center stage to become the primary option on utah. Also stat wise from 14ppg to nearly 22 and 10 now and also the main reason on utah success.
lauri was expected to blossom into a star after his rookie year in chicago but didn't happen. he always has the star potential in him, just need to find the right fit and team which happened to be the jazz.
You forgot Josh Primo, he’s been showing people and flashing
Tyrese Maxey is what NBA teams should be looking for, a guy with B+ talent but all heart and killer winning mindset, instead of someone with A level talent but zero heart like Ben Simmons, or A+ talent but toxic personality like Kyrie, Harden, Westbrook and even Durant
maxey really got that floater game on point this year
The Powell-Trent trade worked out so well for the Raptors. Trent was able to develop as a great star for the raptors. For Powell well he would only spend a season and half with the team before being traded to the Clippers because the trail blazers wanted to rebuild. the trailblazers paid him and traded him in mid season to the clippers and Robert Covington also became a good asset for the clippers.
At least to me ever since GTJ's second season it was pretty clear he was gonna be really good
Such a happy OKC fan :)
Wiggins was the second best player during the Warriors championship run. I don't think it's arguable.
I Been Knew Murray Could Be a Triple Double Threat But Keldon SGA & Maxey Went To My Favorite School So I Always Had Faith In Them 💯
Maxey ain’t outta no where (KNICKS FAN***) he been good, he’s my favorite player to watch and was last year. He’s been on the rise and this is totally expected, maybe not this year I was but I knew he’d be this good.
Nice 1 , you should include Tyrese Haliburton in Pacers his improve allot specially in assest💪
You will get to 500k subd
Really happy about Maxey, maybe he’ll give us hope for the 76s
You forgot Lauri Markkanen
Why you gotta do Dillon brooks dirty like that lol dude has been solid since he got in the league and is shooting 50 percent on nearly 6 3’s a game right now lol
I do see what your saying about SGA but him starting in the playoffs for the clippers was all I need to see I love him so much most underrated played in the league. (Thunder fan btw)
When I saw Trent Jr for the first time in Toronto I’m like is this player good? But little did I know how good he is later
Lonzo for the last 3 seasons has averaged close to all star numbers.
****SGA !!!!****
Dude is _The Business_ and will be able to practically write his next contract to wherever he feels like going (or staying)
Nice.
Could you do an episode on hyped up college players who would have become high lottery picks, but ended up seeing their stocks fell or even not getting drafted because they decided to stay in college for another year; because their game was exposed? One of such players I can think of is Miles Simon.
And a twist with this video: Guys who's stock fell in college, got drafted late first/2nd and eventually turned it around.
The Spurs are so damn good at scouting, drafting and developing players. I kind of hate it, but I have to respect it.
Masai tried hard to bring Maxey to Raptors via Kyle Lowry trade, which was repeatedly rejected. Now we all know why.
Bane looking like Jimmy Butler 2.0 but with a 3-pt shot 💯
Jaylen Brown next video Andy Hoops 🙏🙏🙏
Hot take but I’ll take Gary Trent over Jordan Poole. To me Trent has had a bigger impact on Toronto with scottie,Fred,Spicy p. Jordan is doing great alongside the splash bros but his game reminds me of jr smith. He’ll be on fire one night,next night he shoot his self out the game. Other players like maxey,Murray,and etc needed to prove themselves a little more behind the scenes. Murray was a beast defensively but his offense was mostly of slashing,mid ranges,and fast break buckets. Maxey to me was always a bucket it was just Ben Simmons and Seth curry blocking his shine . Overall everybody is panning out and the next gen of stars are here
Chris Paul doesn't get enough credit in the evolution of SGA watching those two play together was like poetry in motion.
San Antonio has gotten right with Devin Vassell, Keldon Johnson and Dejonte Murray in the last 6 years.
Is sad the rest of the young players did not develop we’ll enough to make San Antonio a playoff team last season.
I’m not shocked at Gary Trent Jr… I feel like he wasn’t missing ANY shots during the bubble
Really suprised Markkanen isnt in this video. I thought this video would be about him lol
Lol, roasting ben simmons even in this kind of video
all star selection going to be even harder this season

I appreciate your channel for sticking to basketball and not politics and religion:)
Big quarantine if Atlantic re-sign Dejounte Murray this coming summer 🤔🤔🤔
SGA WILL BE A PROBLEM THIS YEAR …DEFF MAKING A ALL STAR TEAM THIS YEAR
I would put Devin Vassel on this list as well.
"Nobody knew trent would become this good." Uh, yes we did. Every one in Portland did. He already was good when here lol.
Gary Trent Jr. has become a much better than his father, Tyrese Maxey and Jordan Poole could be All-Stars in the near future assuming they keep up their respective great plays (hopefully), Dejounte Murray has been a pleasant surprise because who could've thought that the once known backup to Tony Parker and a defensive stud would become an All-Star and an all-around player we know today.
76ers playing like the Mike D'Antoni Rockets with Embiid injured.
Its kinda weird that clarkson wasnt on this list.
I had bane as a 1st time all star and Keldon for MIP
Herro went from 6th MOY to starter in Miami in 3 season. Go BBN!
no love for lauri markennen?
Every single OKC fan has known that SGA would be a top 5-10 player one day. It was just so obvious how amazing he was for anyone who watched him the past few seasons. Shai will be an MVP candidate in a few years.
Nowhere close 5-10
@@Tsuny999 not saying he’s top 5 right now. He’s like in the 13-18 range. I’m saying at this point its pretty obvious he will be. But before this season every OKC fan knew he would be amazing this year.
i've always been a SGA believer ever since his rookie year in LA. i knew he's gonna be a really good player in the future. glad he's thriving this season.
Just a shame he’s wasting away on a perennial lottery chaser, his talent deserves better but at least he secured his bag💯
SGA's rookie year had all the signs pointing to him becoming a star
I feel annoyed knowing that, at 5:22, I can already see I saw 3 of these coming (Gary Trent jr, Dejounte, and Keldon Johnson)
feel like darius garland coulda been in this
Why you gotta do Dillon Brooks like that tho😭💀

Aye man can you talk about Derrick Rose situation in New York right now?
Banchero is playing really well for Orlando but he was the top overall pick so no surprise there. Just not tons of hype for him pre-draft. Guy is going to be a star for a long time in this league.
I hope in 2-3 seasons that Josh Green is still improving

Jordan Poole got paid and turned right back into being a scrub.
If the NBA was like the NFL where you only have 2-3 years to develop especially as a QB. We use the word “scrub” too loosely. Some guys just need time & sometimes the right system. Lonzo was already labeled a bust. But now we know how valuable he is in the league.
hopefully james wiseman makes pt 2
9:00 “How many people actually thought SGA would become the main star in OKC?”
We Clippers fans knew. Ask anyone who was following the team closely at that time, we knew SGA was a future star and we mourned his loss hard. Happy to have PG of course (especially considering the trade for him was likely a factor that convinced Kawhi to sign) but it’s hard not to imagine how fun it would’ve been for Kawhi and SGA to play together.

Jamal Murray about to cook in the playoffs this year with Nikola Jokic
Garland was awful when he came into the league, now he is an allstar
Somebody please get SGA some bigger shorts.
if Simmons had this kind of work ethic, he should be top 10 best player
Desmond Bane isn't quite there in my opinion, Lauri Markkanen would've replaced him for me. but there are good reasons for bane still being there
Not only , Simons is a bad defender . Mention by, Nonstop Sports. But I'm Glady he has a great PTS Improvement.
I’m still on Gary Trent Jr but is Jordan Poole in this vid? If he is, you gotta put an asterisk on there. Jordan Poole is great, but he goes insane with baddies on the floor.
Now think of how many players this would have happened with, but they never got that opportunity

Supersoldier serum?
I'm really hoping Toronto keeps and pays Trent Jr
It's quite a shame reading some of the discourse among Raps fans that would rather keep an aging Fred VV and let GTJ walk or trade him a the deadline.
Pls Rj or Obi soon Pls Rj or Obi soon
As decades pass so does the tempo of the game
i like Andys content. but no hate, is it just me. i feel sleepy when i hear his voice 😂.

No way you said maxey, did you not watch his rookie season, or last season
yooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Plot twist: JP did intentionally bad for the warriors to tank until they got good again so he turned up
I wonder whos better; GTJ or Herro
If Ben Simmons didn't act like a big baby by sitting out, refuse to play
Maxey may never have the chance
I don't know how you could possibly blame Ben Simmons for the Philadelphia situation
