This is list is probably based on stats. Thats fine but as prime prospects in a draft you don’t take half of these people over Melo.
Prime Melo would feast in this era and was an elite scorer. He’d be top 10. His scoring would absolutely put him ahead of Booker, SGA. I think I’d edge him over AD too unless AD’s shooting is really back. I’d put him ahead of Butler overall…regular season wise? Melo would be ahead. So somewhere in the 8-10 range.
Prime Melo in todays NBA is a top 5 player, definitely better than old man Lebron
Trae is better than melo
