In his second season in the NBA in 2014–15, he was named to the NBA All-Rookie Second Team. He broke out in his third season and was selected to his first NBA All-Star Game and named Most Improved Player. In 2016–17, he averaged 22.9 points per game (ppg), 8.8 rebounds per game (rpg), 5.4 assists per game (apg), 1.6 steals per game (spg), and 1.9 blocks per game (bpg). He became the Bucks’ franchise leader in triple doubles and led them to their first playoff appearance since 2015.

During the 2017–18 season, Antetokounmpo was named an All-Star starter for the second time and was voted as the league’s Most Valuable Player (MVP). He also led Milwaukee to their best regular season record since 1980–81 and their first playoff series victory since 2001. In 2018–19, he was again voted MVP and led Milwaukee to an Eastern Conference Finals appearance, where they lost to eventual champion Toronto Raptors in six games.

Anthony Davis

Anthony Davis is an American professional basketball player for the Los Angeles Lakers of the National Basketball Association (NBA). He is a five-time NBA All-Star and has been named to four All-NBA First Teams and three NBA All-Defensive Teams. He has also led the league in blocks three times.

Russell Westbrook

There is no clear-cut answer to this question, as there are a number of great players in the NBA right now. However, if we had to choose one player as the best, it would be Russell Westbrook of the Oklahoma City Thunder.

Westbrook is an incredible all-around player, excelling in both offensive and defensive aspects of the game. He is a two-time NBA All-Star and was named the league’s Most Valuable Player in 2017. He is also a very efficient player, posting high shooting percentages both from the field and from three-point range.

In addition to his individual accolades, Westbrook has also been successful in leading his team to the playoffs in recent years. The Thunder have made it to the Western Conference Finals twice in the past three seasons, thanks largely to Westbrook’s play.

There are other great players in the NBA right now, but we believe that Russell Westbrook is currently the best.
