Rounding out the top five players are the Cleveland Cavaliers LeBron James (No. 2), the Los Angeles Lakers Kobe Bryant (No. 3), the New York Knicks Kristaps Porzingis (No. 4), who earned a spot on the list for the first time after a sensational start to his rookie year, and the Oklahoma City Thunders Kevin Durant (No. 5).

Following the Warriors and Bulls, the Cavaliers came in at No. 3, the Lakers at No. 4 and the Knicks at No. 5.
