Omer Asik appears on #NBARANK

A wild Pelican appeared!

On Friday, the great folks at ESPN continued their #NBARANK with players 121-130. A pretty decent group, headlined by Detroit Pistons point guard. Outside of Manu Ginobili, it’s a pretty young group of players. Aaron Gordon is probably the most interesting player of the bunch, as he’s experimented with a three-point shot over the summer. Rookie point guard Emmanuel Mudiay is also in this group; I like his game and think he ends up our 2015-16 Rookie of the Year.

Overall, It’s nice little group of guys around including Cleveland’s Iman Shumpert (a very good role player, who developed himself into a shooter) , Boston’s Avery Bradley (tough, smart defender) and even Portland’s Mason Plumlee (classic pick-and-roll center with good athleticism).
