8. Brook Lopez
If Brook Lopez were to defend and rebound like he scored he will be a superstar, too bad he is poor at both.
Lopez has averaged more than 18 points per game every year besides his rookie season. The problem Lopez has had since his first two seasons, when he averaged eight rebounds per game, is he’s averaged seven (or less) rebounds per game since. It will be interesting to see how Lopez plays this season after playing only 17 games last season, due to foot and ankle surgery.
