The Sports Illustrated Top 100 players of 2018 ranking continues today with a list of players from numbers 50 to 31. (What a canny move on SI’s part to stretch this thing out to three days.) As expected, there’s another Raptor in the mix: DeMar DeRozan. And as my headline gave away: he’s in at number 36 on the list. Now of course, the big question: is that a fair assessment?
