The next generation of NBA superstars are making the league take notice. Teams being led by young, generational talents are succeeding ahead of schedule and doing it in exciting fashion. Teams like the New Orleans Pelicans, Memphis Grizzlies, Boston Celtics, Denver Nuggets and Dallas Mavericks are competing in their respective conferences behind strong play from a core of under 25-year-old players.
All of these teams (and probably several more) can lay claim to having the most enviable young core in the NBA, but the fact is that the New Orleans Pelicans are the best young team in the league.
