NBA Trade Rumors Washington Wizards Bradley Beal (Photo by Rob Carr/Getty Images) /

6. Bradley Beal, Washington Wizards

Stats: 25.6 points, 5.5 assists, 5.0 rebounds

Bradley Beal is one of the most underrated players in the league. Even on this list, some may think he deserves to be in the top 5. Beal can shoot the basketball and he can shoot it from anywhere on the court. He is also a great playmaker who can at times run the point for the more often than not, undermanned Washington Wizards.

With John Wall expected to miss the 2019-20 season, look for Beal to put up some huge numbers. Also if the Wizards fall out of the Eastern Conference race, look for Beal to become trade bait to many contenders at the trade deadline.

5. CJ McCollum, Portland Trail Blazers

Stats: 21.0 points, 4.0 rebounds, 3.0 assists

CJ McCollum, like Beal before him, is also vastly underrated. He is one of the best scorers in the league and does it from anywhere on the court. He can shoot the 3-ball, he can shoot the mid-range, he finishes very well, and is a great playmaker in the Blazers’ offense.

He helped lead the Blazers to the Western Conference Finals last season, a run that no one really saw coming in the Western Conference, and has Blazer fans excited about their chances next season.
