Kyle Anderson signed with the Minnesota Timberwolves as a nine-year veteran. While his stay in the Gopher State was only two seasons, it was marked with versatility, depth, and leadership.

Anderson’s defensive skills and offensive vision made up for a lack of size and pure talent, but he was undoubtedly an asset to Minnesota in his two seasons there.  Anderson averaged

In the summer of 2024, Anderson was traded to the Golden State Warriors as part of a six-team trade.

In the broader scope, Mike Conley is one of the most underrated basketball players in the world, but on the inside, Conley has been a coveted player due to his selfless and team-first attitude. During his 15th season, Conley was traded from the Utah Jazz to Minnesota and finished the year continuing to average over 10 Points per Game, earning his fourth Sportsmanship Award.

Two years asi, Conley continued his steak of consistency (11.4 PPG), helped Minnesota reach the Western Conference Finals, and won his second Teammate of the Year Award.

In his late 30s, Conley begins his 2025-26 campaign as a veteran player hoping to play a role on an NBA Championship Team.

The Timberwolves drafted Jaden McDaniels with the 28^th Overall Pick in 2020, and the Washington Husky proved Minnesota right with their selection.

McDaniels saw significant playing time as a rookie, and as he enters his fifth year, his defensive versatility to shut down forwards regardless of size and skill.  As each season progressed, McDaniels kept improving, and though he is a streaky scorer, he has shown annual progression in his PPG metrics.  He has also shown strong defensive presence, as displayed by his Second Team All-Defensive Selection in 2024.

A rising star on the 2024 and 2025 teams that made the Western Conference Finals, McDaniels is a key player for Minnesota’s future success.

As many of you know, we at Notinhalloffame.com are slowly generating the top 50 of each major North American sports team. That being said, we have existing Top 50 lists and consistently look to update them when necessary and based on necessity. As such, we are delighted to present our post-2023-24 revision of our top 50 Los Angeles Kings.

As for all of our top 50 players in hockey, we look at the following:

1.  Advanced Statistics.

2.  Traditional statistics and how they finished in the National Hockey League.

3.  Playoff accomplishments.

4.  Their overall impact on the team and other intangibles that are not reflected in a stat sheet.

Last year, the Kings made it to the playoffs but were dispatched early by the Edmonton Oilers.  There were no changes to the top five, though two of them are still active with the team.  There were no new entrants and two elevations.

As always, we present our top five, which saw no changes:

1. Marcel Dionne
2. Drew Doughty
3. Anze Kopitar
4. Luc Robitaille
5. Wayne Gretzky

You can find the entire list here.

Drew Doughty, a former Norris Trophy winner, remains at #2, though he was close to overtaking Dionne for the top spot.

Like Doughty, Anze Kopitar could not overtake Dionne nor Doughty, though he can eclipse them both when this is revised in twelve months.

Adrian Kempe advanced a dozen spots to #26.

Defenseman Matt Roy went from #50 to #46.

We thank you for your continued support of our lists on Notinhalloffame.com.
