**#5 – Ja Morant** (Age in 2027: 27)
This past season, Ja Morant made a superstar jump and won a trophy for it. Of the previous 12 most improved players, four of them (Giannis Antetokounmpo, Jimmy Butler, Paul George, and Kevin Love) eventually became top 10 players. Ja is definitely a top 15 talent in the league now, maybe higher. With continuous deep playoff runs and years to grow stronger and develop a more seasoned jumper, the sky is the limit. We elected to put him above other young guards like Trae, Booker, and Ball because he made All NBA Second Team at just 22 years old, demonstrated that he is an elite floor raiser, and probably has the most room in his game – shooting – to still grow. All in all, a prime Morant could look a lot like a prime Westbrook.

To think we could have Ja on the team until 2027 and beyond….. wow
Whos above ja then?
I love Kenny
Flaming hot spicy take, but I love it. Ja’s better than Curry, it’s official.
Is Joel even gonna be physically able to play in 5 years?
