5. Giannis Antetokounmpo, Milwaukee Bucks

Stats: 25 points, 14 rebounds, 2 blocks

Giannis Antetokounmpo has the Milwaukee Bucks playing at a seriously high level. The Bucks are currently one of two undefeated teams remaining in the NBA, and have been playing as good as any team in the NBA, if we’re being frank.

And Giannis continues to improve, and looks better than ever this season. He reportedly worked on his mid-range game this past summer, and it has already paid dividends this season. His 3-point shot is still a work in progress, but he’s so unstoppably running at the rim, it’s not that much of a weakness for his overall offensive game.

If the Bucks continue on this hot streak for the remainder of the regular season, only expect Giannis to rise on this list.
