While waiting for the resumption of the NBA, which will take place in a few weeks, Bleacher Report has fun redoing the drafts according to the players present. Latest? That of 2017, with Jayson Tatum or Lonzo Ball. It is precisely the classification of the latter that is highly controversial.
Redo the drafts while waiting for the return of the NBA? Yes, we can say that it is a great occupation. This is precisely the subject of the last article of Bleacher Report, which tackled that of 2017. We find beautiful people there with Jayson Tatum, Donovan Mitchell or Bam Adebayo. It is these three men, unsurprisingly, who make up the top three.
For the rest ? Let’s say that a player is debating, and not just a little: Lonzo Ball. The leader was ranked fourth, ahead of John Collins or De’Aaron Fox. Before going any further, we leave you with the top 14, where we will also note the remote place of Kyle Kuzma… 13th.
Bleacher Report’s 2017 re-draft:
1. Jayson Tatum
2. Donovan Mitchell
3. Bam Adebayo
4. Lonzo Ball
5. John Collins
6. De’Aaron Fox
7. Jarrett Allen
8. OG Anunoby
9. Jonathan Isaac
10. Derrick White
11. Lauri Markkanen
12. Monte Morris
13. Kyle Kuzma
14. Luke Kennard— NBA Central (@TheNBACentral) September 14, 2021
As we said, it is Lonzo’s place that makes people talk. In front of Collins and Fox? Yes, we can have doubts. Ball is 14.6 points and 5.7 assists on average, but above all a disappointing impression. He is far from meeting expectations, even though he has just signed a nice contract with the Bulls. For comparison, Fox is coming off an admirable campaign at the Kings with 25.2 points and 7.2 assists. Seeing him behind Lonzo makes absolutely no sense, and internet users have understood it.
Deaaron behind Lonzo???

De’Aaron behind Lonzo ??
No, this overhaul of the 2017 draft is missed by Bleacher Report, and Lonzo Ball’s ranking alone can tell. A little respect for De’Aaron Fox and even John Collins, two players with very interesting potential for the future.
