One of our pet projects, the Fictitious Athlete Hall of Fame is pleased to announce the six new members comprising the Class of 2022, which is the 9th full class.
There are three wings in the Fictitious Athlete Hall of Fame:
The Fictitious Athlete wing, whose members are: Rocky Balboa (The Rocky series), Roy Hobbs (The Natural), Crash Avis (Bull Durham), Ricky “Wild Thing” Vaughn (Major League), Happy Gilmore (Happy Gilmore), Reggie Dunlop (Slap Shot), The Hanson Brothers (Slap Shot), Charlie Conway (The Mighty Ducks) Benny “The Jet” Rodriguez (The Sandlot), Apollo Creed (Rocky), Willie “Mays” Hayes (Major League), Forrest Gump (Forrest Gump), Bobby Boucher (The Waterboy), Paul “Wrecking” Crewe (The Longest Yard), Dottie Hinson (A League of Their Own), Daniel LaRusso (The Karate Kid), Clubber Lang (Rocky), Ivan Drago (Rocky), “Fast” Eddie Felson (The Hustler & The Color of Money, Al Bundy (Married...with Children), Homer Simpson (The Simpsons), Johnny Lawrence (The Karate Kid and Cobra Kai), Jake Taylor (Major League), Sam Malone (Cheers) and Jimmy Chitwood (Hoosiers).
The Fictitious Contributor Wing, whose members are: Harry Doyle (Major League), Carl Spackler (Caddyshack), Mr. Miyagi (The Karate Kid), Chubbs Peterson (Happy Gilmore), Gordon Bombay (The Mighty Ducks), Mickey Goldmill (Rocky), Morris Buttermaker (The Bad News Bears), Coach Ernie Pantusso (Cheers), Adrian Balboa (Rocky), Jimmy Dugan (A League of Their Own), The Gopher (Caddyshack), Paulie Pennino (Rocky) and Norman Dale (Hoosiers).

Who joins them? Let’s find out!
The Fictitious Athlete Class of 2023 are:
Adonis Creed (Creed and Creed II, portrayed by Michael B. Jordan). The son of former World Heavyweight Boxing Champion, Apollo Creed, Adonis became the World Heavyweight Champion himself. This is the most “recent” inductee, and the one with the greatest fictitious athlete pedigree.
Lee (Enter the Dragon, portrayed by Bruce Lee). Lee qualifies as he participated in what was the most unorganized martial arts tournament in memory; which considering he lived, he won? That being said, is there a more realistic combatant in any fictional contest?
Ricky Bobby (Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby, Portrayed by Will Ferrell). NASCAR legend, Ricky Bobby finally enters the Fictitious Athlete Hall of Fame, and auto racing is well represented. He wasn’t “first” to get in, but despite his famous credo, is not “last”.
The Fictitious Athlete Contributors are:
Irv Blitzer (Cool Runnings, played by John Candy): While there was a Jamaican Bobsled Team at the 1988 Olympics, there was no Irv Blitzer. In Cool Runnings, he did exist, as a disgraced former American bobsledder who cheated in the 1960 Olympics. He found his redemption with the Jamaican bobsledders, and coached them to respectability in .
John Kreese (The Karate Kid & Cobra Kai, portrayed by Martin Kove): Johnny Lawrence swept the leg, but it was Sensei John Kreese who gave the order. The evil karate instructor corrupted many a young mind for Valley dominance amongst high school karate students, and decades later, he did it all again.
The Fictitious Athlete Veteran is:
Frank Capua (Winning, portrayed by Paul Newman): Capua long dreamt of capturing the checkered flag at the Indianapolis 500, but there are a lot of obstacles in the way to get it. Newman is now a three-time entrant following his “Fast” Eddie Felson and Reggie Dunlop induction.
This now means we are underway for voting on the Fictitious Athlete Hall of Fame Class of 2023.

As always, we here at Notinhalloffame.com thank you for your support.
It is with great pleasure that we announce the third annual Notinhalloffame NHL Regular Season Cup, and let us explain how this works:
With every single regular season game, we anointed the best five players in the game with descending points, 5-4-3-2-1.
We knew the following:
- The top players for the NHL NIHOF Cup are not always the best in the league, as injuries keep players out of games, and a premium on staying healthy can help pile up points. It also does not hurt to be a top player on an average or mediocre team, as they can amass Cup points easier that elite players on loaded squads.
- Please remember, that this is NOT necessarily who we think were the best players this year, and does not reflect overall consistency. Treat this the way did, as a fun process and more of a compilation of temporary statistical domination.
A whopping, 8108 players received at least one point (two less than last year), with 16 cracking at least 100 (three less than last year).
So, NHL players! Get your agents to work winning this into your contracts!
1. Connor McDavid: Edmonton Oilers, Center:
166 Cup Points, 82 Games, 2.02 Cup Points per Game, 64 Goals, 89 Assists, 153 Points, +22, 36 PIM, 40 Blocked Shots, 89 Hits, 82 Takeaways, 77 Giveaways, 18.1 Point Shares. (Last Year #1)
Wow. Just, wow. Repeating as the Notinhalloffame NHL Cup winner is Connor McDavid, who had the most explosive season in this generation, and the future first-ballot Hall of Famer just completed his most impressive regular season in hockey and will undoubtedly win another Hart Trophy. He led the NHL in Goals for the first time (64), Assists for the third (89) and Points (153) for the fifth, meaning he is now a five-time Art Ross winner. McDavid also topped the NHL in Point Shares (18.1), Offensive Point Shares (15.8) and is the first player in over twenty years to break 150 Points. As he is still well under 30, McDavid should clear out more space in his trophy room for what will come next.
2. (Tie) David Pastrnak: Boston Bruins, Right Wing
147 Cup Points, 82 Games, 1.79 Cup Points per Game, 61 Goals, 52 Assists, 113 Points, +34, 31 Blocked Shots, 91 Hits, 52 Takeaways, 109 Giveaways, 15.1 Point Shares. (Last Year #13)
In any other year over the past ten seasons, Pastrnak would probably win the Hart, but second to McDavid for that and the Notinhalloffame Cup is perfectly fine. The Czech sniper became only the second Bruin (joining Phil Esposito) to net 60 Goals in a campaign, and again, only McDavid lit the lamp more. He was still the league-leader in Even Strength Goals (43), Game-Winning Goals (13) and Shots (407) while finishing third in Points (113) and second in Point Shares (15.1). Pastrnak added a third All-Star Game this year, and months from now will become a two-time First Team All-Star.
3. Nathan MacKinnon: Colorado Avalanche, Center
140 Cup Points, 71 Games, 1.97 Cup Points per Game, 42 Goals, 69 Assists, 111 Points, +29, 30 PIM, 40 Blocked Shots, 53 Hits, 43 Takeaways, 47 Giveaways, 13.0 Point Shares. (Last Year, #24)
MacKinnon posted his first 100-plus Point year, doing so in a campaign where he missed over ten Games. The Avs Center, who led all 2022 Playoff skaters in Goals (13) and Shots (117) added a sixth All-Star, was fifth in Points (111) and tenth in Point Shares (13.0). He was also hird in Points per Game (1.56).
4. (Tie) Linus Ullmark: Boston Bruins, Goalie:
124 Cup Points, 49 Games, 2.53 Cup Points per Game, 40 Wins, 6 Losses, 1 Ties/Overtime Losses, .938 Save Percentage, 1.89 Goals Against Average, 13.1 Goalie Point Shares (Last Year, #98)
Did you see this coming? Neither did we. Ullmark is this year’s best Goalie, and there is no way possible that he won’t win the Vezina. He lef the NHL in Wins (40), Save Percentage (.938) and GAA (1.89) and the only negative you could say about him is that he plays less than most first string Goalies. Of course, Boston’s backup is Jeremy Swayman! We don’t know if this is a one-off of greatness, or the harbinger of things to come, but let’s enjoy the Bruins Goalie tandem of 2022-23. Notably, Ullmark also was an All-Star for the first time this season.
4 (Tie). Mikko Rantanen: Colorado Avalanche, Right Wing
124 Cup Points, 82 Games, 1.51 Cup Points per Game, 55 Goals, 50 Assists, 105 Points, +15, 82 PIM, 41 Blocked Shots, 77 Hits, 61 Takeaways, 45 Giveaways, 12.8 Point Shares. (Last Year, #19)
Over the last four months, it alternated between Colorado and Boston as to who would have the first two players to rank in Cup Standings. How fitting is it that we are tied for that! Mikko cracked over 100 Points and 50 Goals for the first time, and added his second All-Star since 2019. Rantanen was also third in Goals (55) and eighth in Points (105).
6. Jason Robertson: Dallas Stars, Left Wing:
118 Cup Points, 82 Games, 1.44 Cup Points per Game, 46 Goals, 63 Assists, 109 Points, +37, 20 PIM, 19 Blocked Shots, 57 Hits, 62 Takeaways, 66 Giveaways, 13.9 Point Shares. (Last Year, #32)
Robertson continued his upward progression with his first 100-Point year and his first All-Star appearance. Now the top player for the Stars, Robertson was seventh in Goals (46) and sixth in Points (109).
7. Matthew Tkachuk: Florida Panthers, Right Wing:
117 Cup Points, 79 Games, 1.48 Cup Points per Game, 40 Goals, 69 Assists, 109 Points, +29, 31 Blocked Shots, 68 Hits, 38 Takeaways, 62 Giveaways, 12.3 Point Shares. (Last Year, #10)
Florida got everything they expected when they traded for Tkachuk, who set career-highs in Assists (69) and Points (109), finishing sixth in the latter statistic. Tkachuk was also an All-Star for the second straight year.
8. Jack Hughes: New Jersey Devils, Center
115 Cup Points, 78 Games, 1.47 Cup Points per Game, 43 Goals, 56 Assists, 99 Points, +10, 6 PIM, 30 Blocked Shots, 12 Hits, 60 Takeaways, 85 Giveaways, 11.3 Point Shares. (Last Year, #86)
While New Jersey’s good season was a surprise, Jack Hughes breakout was not. The young American was eighth in Goals (43) and is now a two-time All-Star.
9. (Tie) Elias Pettersson: Vancouver Canucks, Center
113 Cup Points, 80 Games, 1.41 Cup Points per Game, 39 Goals, 63 Assists, 102 Points, +16, 14 PIM, 89 Blocked Shots, 74 Hits, 56 Takeaways, 47 Giveaways, 10.9 Point Shares. (Last Year, #65)
Pettersson is the bright spot on an abysmal Canucks team, and the former Calder winner had his best year by far, besting his previous best by 34 Points with his first three-digit tally. He led the NHL in Shorthanded Goals (5), became an All-Star for the third time, and was tenth in Points (102) and Assists (63).
10. (Tie) Brady Tkachuk: Ottawa Senators, Left Wing:
110 Cup Points, 82 Games, 1.34 Cup Points per Game, 35 Goals, 48 Assists, 83 Points, -10, 126 PIM, 9 Blocked Shots, 242 Hits, 30 Takeaways, 51 Giveaways, 8.9 Point Shares. (Last Year, #34)
Tkachuk improved to the point where he nearly topped his brother, Matthew, and at one time was ahead of him in Cup Standings. Ottawa got him more players to surround him, but that did not include a Goalie! The younger Tkachuk is the best player with over 100 Penalty Minutes and 200 Hits, and he was third overall in the former stat. He also was fourth in Shots (347) and he was an All-Star for the second time this year.
11 (TIE). Leon Draisaitl: Edmonton Oilers, Center:
109 Cup Points, 82 Games, 1.33 Cup Points per Game, 52 Goals, 76 Assists, 128 Points, +7, 24 PIM, 40 Blocked Shots, 66 Hits, 77 Takeaways, 102 Giveaways, 13.2 Point Shares. (Last Year, #4)
The 2020 Hart and Art Ross Trophy winner actually had more Points this season (128 to 110), and was second behind only his teammate, Connor McDavid. Draisaitl led the NHL in Power Play Goals and was third in overall Goals (52). Draisaitl often missed out on Cup Points to McDavid.
11 (TIE). Brayden Point: Tampa Bay Lightning, Center:
109 Cup Points, 82 Games, 1.33 Cup Points per Game, 51 Goals, 44 Assists, 95 Points, +2, 31 PIM, 37 Blocked Shots, 37 Hits, 51 Takeaways, 45 Giveaways, 11.2 Point Shares. (Last Year, #133)
Point scored 92 Points in 2018-19 but it took until this year for him to come close to that, and he did in fact, exceed it with 95, an his first 50-Goal year. The Lightning Center was fifth in Goals (51), third in Power Play Goals (20), fifth in Game-Winning Goals (9) and seventh in Even Strength Goals (31).
13. Juuse Saros: Nashville Predators, Goalie:
109 Cup Points, 64 Games, 1.70 Cup Points per Game, 33 Wins, 23 Losses, 7 Ties/Overtime Losses, .919 Save Percentage, 2.69 Goals Against Average, 14.9 Goalie Point Shares (Last Year, #9)
For the second consecutive season, Saros led the NHL in Goalie Point Shares (14.9) and was also first in Saves (1,928) and Minutes Played (3,810). The workhorse ended the year eighth in Save Percentage, and went to his second straight All-Star Game.
14. Auston Matthews: Toronto Maple Leafs, Center:
105 Cup Points, 74 Games, 1.42 Cup Points per Game, 40 Goals, 45 Assists, 85 Points, +31, 20 PIM, 92 Blocked Shots, 78 Hits, 68 Takeaways, 55 Giveaways, 10.5 Point Shares. (Last Year, #2)
Matthews did not replicate his Hart Trophy winning performance of last year, but he had a very good year, with his fourth consecutive 40-Goal year. Within his team, he was third in Points, but led his squad in Shots (327) and Point Shares (10.6). This might seem like a step back, but mainly because he was so potent last year.
15. Jake Oettinger: Dallas Stars, Goalie:
104 Cup Points, 62 Games, 1.69 Cup Points per Game, 37 Wins, 11 Losses, 11 Ties/Overtime Losses, .919 Save Percentage, 2.37 Goals Against Average, 12.7 Goalie Point Shares (Last Year, #101)
The ascendence of Oettinger continues, and though the third-year player was not an All-Star, his stats show that he should have been. Oettinger finished third in Wins (37), sixth in Save Percentage (.919) and seventh in GAA (2.37). He is on a cusp of stardom.
16 (TIE). Erik Karlsson: San Jose Sharks, Defense:
99 Cup Points, 82 Games, 1.21 Cup Points per Game, 25 Goals, 76 Assists, 101 Points, -26, 36 PIM, 90 Blocked Shots, 33 Hits, 81 Takeaways, 101 Giveaways, 12.4 Point Shares. (Last Year, #325)
Erik Karlsson was a two-time Norris winner, but offensively, has not had a 60-Point season since 2017-18, with a previous high of 82 (2015-16). With only 97 Points in his last three years, Karlsson scoring 101 Points was a shocker, and bluntly the only thing that Sharks fans had this year. He led all Defenseman in Scoring and Cup Points, and was an All-Star, giving him seven.
16 (TIE). Connor Hellebucyk: Winnipeg Jets, Goalie:
99 Cup Points, 64 Games, 1.55 Cup Points per Game, 37 Wins, 25 Losses, 2 Ties/Overtime Losses, .920 Save Percentage, 2.49 Goals Against Average, 14.3 Goalie Point Shares (Last Year, #49)
The Winnipeg Jets fought their way into the final spot in the Western Conference playoffs, with Hellebucyk the principal reason the made it. The former Vezina winner went to his third All-Star Game and was third in Wins (37), second in Saves (1,807), fifth in Save Percentage (.920) and second in Goalie Point Shares (14.3). Where would Winnipeg be without him?
18 (TIE). Igor Shesterkin: New York Rangers, Goalie:
98 Cup Points, 58 Games, 1.70 Cup Points per Game, 37 Wins, 13 Losses, 8 Ties/Overtime Losses, .916 Save Percentage, 2.48 Goals Against Average, 11.8 Goalie Point Shares
The reigning Vezina winner was an All-Star for the first time and finished third in Wins (37) and was tenth in both Save Percentage and GAA.
18. (Tie) Sidney Crosby: Pittsburgh Penguins, Center:
98 Cup Points, 82 Games, 1.20 Cup Points per Game, 33 Goals, 60 Assists, 93 Points, +18, 52 PIM, 47 Blocked Shots, 71 Hits, 59 Takeaways, 67 Giveaways, 9.6 Point Shares. (Last Year, #36)
The Hart Trophy days of Crosby is behind him, but he is still a great player. Notably, he joined the 1,500 Point club this year, and he added a fifth All-Star Game appearance.
20. (Tie) Nikita Kucherov: Tampa Bay Lightning, Right Wing
94 Cup Points, 82 Games, 1.12 Cup Points per Game, 30 Goals, 83 Assists, 113 Points, -2, 36 PIM, 28 Blocked Shots, 61 Hits, 57 Takeaways, 98 Giveaways, 10.7 Point Shares. (Last Year, #58)
Healthy for the entire season, Kucherov played close to his 2018-19 Hart Trophy-winning form with his third triple digit Point year. Kucherov went to his fourth All-Star, concluding the season second in Assists and third and Points. His teammate, Brayden Point, took a few Cup Points away from him through the season, but that is how this process can work!
21. (Tie) William Nylander: Toronto Maple Leafs, Center:
92 Cup Points, 82 Games, 1.12 Cup Points per Game, 40 Goals, 47 Assists, 87 Points, +10, 26 Blocked Shots, 18 Hits, 70 Takeaways, 37 Giveaways, 10.0 Point Shares. (#22 Last Year)
For the second year in a row, Nylander set personal bests in Goals, Assists and Points. Nylander can often get lost in Auston Mathews’ shadow, but don’t sleep on this player’s talent. (Last Year, #26)
22. Kirill Kaprizov: Minnesota Wild, Left Wing:
93 Cup Points, 67 Games, 1.39 Cup Points per Game, 40 Goals, 35 Assists, 75 Points, +4, 35 PIM, 28 Blocked Shots, 66 Hits, 50 Takeaways, 54 Giveaways, 9.2 Point Shares. (Last Year, #23)
Kaprizov is the top star for the Wild, although his third season saw a production drop of 33 Points (though he also played 14 less Games). He may not have scored 100 Points this year, but bank on him doing it again. Kaprizov also added his second All-Star this season.
23. John Tavares: Toronto Maple Leafs, Center:
91 Cup Points, 80 Games, 1.14 Cup Points per Game, 36 Goals, 44 Assists, 80 Points, -7, 34 PIM, 36 Blocked Shots, 112 Hits, 46 Takeaways, 54 Giveaways, 8.5 Point Shares. (Last Year, #158)
A First Team All-Star in 2014-15 as an Islander, Tavares compiled his second 80-Point Year (fifth overall) as a Maple Leaf. He was sixth in the NHL in Power Play Goals with 18, his career best.
24. Mika Zibanejad: New York Rangers, Center:
88 Cup Points, 82 Games, 1.07 Cup Points per Game, 39 Goals, 52 Assists, 91 Points, +25, 20 PIM, 48 Blocked Shots, 71 Hits, 57 Takeaways, 67 Giveaways, 10.6 Point Shares. (Last Year, #42)
Last year, Zibanajad broke 80 Points for the first time, and this year he breached 90! Zibanajad also had career highs in Point Shares (10.6) and Power Play Goals (20).
24. (Tie) Timo Meier: San Jose Sharks & New Jersey Devils, Right Wing:
88 Cup Points, 78 Games, 0.89 Cup Points per Game, 40 Goals, 26 Assists, 66 Points, -19, 43 PIM, 37 Blocked Shots, 154 Hits, 58 Takeaways, 65 Giveaways, 7.1 Point Shares. (Last Year, #26)
Meier was traded from San Jose to New Jersey this year, and the Swiss Wing secured his first 40-Goal year.
24 (TIE). Andrei Vasilevskiy: Tampa Bay Lightning, Goalie:
88 Cup Points, 60 Games, 1.47 Cup Points per Game, 34 Wins, 22 Losses, 4 Ties/Overtime Losses, .915 Save Percentage, 2.65 Goals Against Average, 12.7 Goalie Point Shares (Last Year, #39)
With a Vezina, a Conn Smythe and two Stanley Cup Rings on his ledger, Vasilevskiy led the NHL in Wins five years in a row, but was unable to add a sixth when he “only” finished sixth. Adding a fifth All-Star, Vasilevskiy was fifth in Saves this year (1,716).
27. Tim Stutzle: Ottawa Senators, Left Wing
87 Cup Points, 78 Games, 1.12 Cup Points per Game, 39 Goals, 51 Assists, 90 Points, -3, 54 PIM, 49 Blocked Shots, 114 Hits, 61 Takeaways, 62 Giveaways, 10.0 Point Shares. (Last Year, #166)
It appears that Germany has another budding superstar hockey player in their midst with Tim Stutzle, who was Ottawa’s leading scorer. Increasing his Points total from 58 to 90, Stutzle is a future All-Star.
28. (Tie) Tage Thompson: Buffalo Sabres, Center
85 Cup Points, 78 Games, 1.09 Cup Points per Game, 47 Goals, 47 Assists, 94 Points, +4, 39 PIM, 26 Blocked Shots, 55 Hits, 43 Takeaways, 40 Giveaways, 11.1 Point Shares. (Last Year, #28)
Thompson made another significant jump in Points (and Cup Points) finishing three shy of 50 in both Goals and Assists. A future All-Star, Thompson was sixth in Goals (47), third in Power Play Goals (20) and had four Hat Tricks, sharing the league lead.
28 (TIE). Alexandar Georgiev: Colorado Avalanche, Goalie:
88 Cup Points, 62 Games, 1.42 Cup Points per Game, 40 Wins, 16 Losses, 6 Ties/Overtime Losses, .918 Save Percentage, 2.53 Goals Against Average, 13.4 Goalie Point Shares (Last Year, #190)
Backing up New York’s Igor Shesterkin last year, Alexander Georgiev became the top netminder for the defending champion, Colorado. It has been a good fit thus far for both parties, with Georgiev leading the league in Wins (40).
28. Roope Hintz: Dallas Stars, Left Wing
85 Cup Points, 73 Games, 1.16 Cup Points per Game, 37 Goals, 38 Assists, 75 Points, +31, 30 PIM, 45 Blocked Shots, 47 Hits, 28 Takeaways, 38 Giveaways, 9.9 Point Shares.
Hintz had his second consecutive 70-Point year, and was sixth in the NHL in Shooting Percentage (20.1).
28. Ilya Sorokin: New York Islanders, Goalie:
85 Cup Points, 62 Games, 1.37 Cup Points per Game, 31 Wins, 22 Losses, 7 Ties/Overtime Losses, .924 Save Percentage, 2.34 Goals Against Average, 14.1 Goalie Point Shares (Last Year, #29)
A five-time KHL All-Star and now in his third year, Sorokin had a really good year, albeit on a team that treaded water. The Islander with the most Cup Points, Sorokin was third in Save Percentage, sixth in GAA, and third in Goalie Point Shares. Sorokin also became an All-Star for the first time this year.
32. (Tie) Sebastian Aho: Carolina Hurricanes, Center & Left Wing:
84 Cup Points, 75 Games, 1.12 Cup Points per Game, 36 Goals, 31 Assists, 67 Points, +8, 21 Blocked Shots, 59 Hits, 63 Takeaways, 63 Giveaways, 8.2 Point Shares. (Last Year, #34)
For the fourth time in his NHL career, Aho scored at least 30 Goals, and was fifth in Game-Winning Goals with 9. Aho’s numbers are more impressive considering the conservative style that the Hurricanes play.
32. (TIE) Ryan Nugent-Hopkins: Edmonton Oilers, Center:
84 Cup Points, 82 Games, 1.02 Cup Points per Game, 37 Goals, 67 Assists, 104 Points, +12, 35 PIM, 26 Blocked Shots, 48 Hits, 56 Takeaways, 31 Giveaways, 10.9 Point Shares. (Last Year, #256)
Nugent-Hopkins was the First Overall Pick in 2011, but he ever became a superstar like many number ones do. He wasn’t a bust, but in some circles RNH was a mild disappointment…until now. Nugent-Hopkins had 104 Points this year (his previous high was 68) and was ninth in that stat. Nugent-Hopkins lost a few Cup Points playing on the same team as Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl, but this is obviously minor in the grand scheme.
34. Jordan Kyrou: St. Louis Blues, Center
83 Cup Points, 79 Games, 1.05 Cup Points per Game, 37 Goals, 36 Assists, 73 Points, 22 PIM, -38, 23 Blocked Shots, 6 Hits, 36 Takeaways, 32 Giveaways, 6.7 Point Shares. (Last Year, #72)
St. Louis is in full rebuilding mode, with Kyrou the offensive piece they will construct around. Despite his Cup Points jump, the young Canadian had two fewer Points, but ten more Goals, and by the end of the year, was the only sniper the team had left.
35 (TIE). Mitch Marner: Toronto Maple Leafs, Right Wing
82 Cup Points, 80 Games, 1.03 Cup Points per Game, 30 Goals, 69 Assists, 99 Points, +18, 28 PIM, 45 Blocked Shots, 53 Hits, 104 Takeaways, 94 Giveaways, 10.2 Point Shares. (Last Year, #22)
Marner bested last year’s career-high in Points by two, and he concluded the season fifth in Assists (69).
35 (TIE). Josh Morrissey: Winnipeg Jets, Defense
82 Cup Points, 78 Games, 1.05 Cup Points per Game, 16 Goals, 60 Assists, 76 Points, +2, 41 PIM, 119 Blocked Shots, 89 Hits, 36 Takeaways, 59 Giveaways, 11.3 Point Shares. (Last Year, #305)
Winnipeg’s top Defenseman had an offensive explosion, increasing his previous high of 37 Points (last year) to 76. Like his Goalie, Connor Hellebucyk, the Jets are not in the playoffs without him.
38. (TIE) Jamie Benn: Dallas Stars, Left Wing
81 Cup Points, 82 Games, 0.99 Cup Points per Game, 33 Goals, 45 Assists, 78 Points, +23, 34 PIM, 38 Blocked Shots, 97 Hits, 55 Takeaways, 48 Giveaways, 9.5 Point Shares. (Last Year #258)
Injured for most of last year, Benn was back in Dallas where the veteran took them back to the playoffs. The veteran had his first 75-plus Point year since 2017-18.
38. (TIE) Roman Josi: Nashville Predators, Defense
81 Cup Points, 67 Games, 1.21 Cup Points per Game, 18 Goals, 41 Assists, 59 Points, +5, 36 PIM, 133 Blocked Shots, 66 Hits, 48 Takeaways, 71 Giveaways, 9.9 Point Shares. (Last Year #20)
The 2020 Norris Trophy winner dropped significantly in Points from last year (96), but is still the anchor of the Predator’s defense and one of the game’s top blueliners.
38. (TIE) Dougie Hamilton: New Jersey Devils, Defense
81 Cup Points, 82 Games, 0.98 Cup Points per Game, 22 Goals, 52 Assists, 74 Points, +23, 50 PIM, 86 Blocked Shots, 64 Hits, 21 Takeaways, 74 Giveaways, 12.1 Point Shares. (Last Year, #226)
Hamilton just put forth his best season by far, shattering his previous best (50 Points in 2016-17) by 24 Points, and could be a Post-Season All-Star.
40. (TIE) Martin Necas: Carolina Hurricanes, Center
80 Cup Points, 82 Games, 0.98 Cup Points per Game, 28 Goals, 43 Assists, 71 Points, +5, 32 PIM, 21 Blocked Shots, 57 Hits, 45 Takeaways, 65 Giveaways, 7.6 Point Shares. (Last Year, #98)
The Czech Center improved his output, rising 31 Points from last year. With his youth and linemates, Necas should improve on this total next season.
40. (TIE) Claude Giroux: Ottawa Senators, Center & Left Wing
80 Cup Points, 82 Games, 0.98 Cup Points per Game, 35 Goals, 44 Assists, 79 Points, +4, 34 PIM, 16 Blocked Shots, 48 Hits, 21 Takeaways, 26 Giveaways, 9.0 Point Shares. (Last Year, #200)
Many were surprised that Claude Giroux signed with Ottawa, and though the veteran could not will the Sens to the playoffs, he had his most productive campaign since 208/19.
40 (TIE). Steven Stamkos: Tampa Bay Lightning, Center:
80 Cup Points, 81 Games, 0.99 Cup Points per Game, 34 Goals, 50 Assists, 84 Points, -5, 46 PIM, 51 Blocked Shots, 92 Hits, 25 Takeaways, 54 Giveaways, 8.4 Point Shares. (Last Year, #12)
Stamkos never stops scoring, and though the two-time Rocket Richard winner is into his 30s, he is still one of Tampa’s most potent weapons. An owner of two Stanley Cup Rings, Stamkos eclipsed 500 Goals and 1,000 Points this year.
40 (TIE). Alex Ovechkin: Washington Capitals, Left Wing:
80 Cup Points, 73 Games, 1.10 Cup Points per Game, 42 Goals, 33 Assists, 75 Points, -16, 48 PIM, 23 Blocked Shots, 188 Hits, 31 Takeaways, 52 Giveaways, 8.5 Point Shares.
Ovechkin broke the 800 Goal mark this year and has Wayne Gretzky in his sight. He also added his ninth All-Star Game.
44. (Tie) Clayton Keller: Arizona Coyotes, Center
78 Cup Points, 82 Games, 0.95 Cup Points per Game, 37 Goals, 49 Assists, 86 Points, -2, 49 PIM, 34 Blocked Shots, 18 Hits, 58 Takeaways, 63 Giveaways, 8.7 Point Shares. (Last Year, #72)
The Arizona Coyotes may have a slew of issues, but that does not include Keller, who just broke his seasonal Points record by 9. If Arizona adds other potent Wings, Keller could become a 100-Point player.
44. (Tie) Kevin Fiala: Los Angele Kings, Left Wing:
78 Cup Points, 69 Games, 1.12 Cup Points per Game, 23 Goals, 49 Assists, 72 Points, +2, 52 PIM, 18 Blocked Shots, 53 Hits, 18 Takeaways, 37 Giveaways, 7.1 Point Shares.
Fiala joined Los Angeles this year and the nine-year pro was 13 Points away from last season’s personal best of 85. He went to his first All-Star Game this year.
44. (Tie) Filip Gustavsson: Minnesota Wild, Goalie:
78 Cup Points, 39 Games, 2.00 Cup Points per Game, 22 Wins, 9 Losses, 7 Ties/Overtime Losses, .931 Save Percentage, 2.10 Goals Against Average, 9.8 Goalie Point Shares (Last Year, #339)
Gustavsson only appeared in 39 Games but he was just as good as the other part of Minnesota’s netminding tandem, Marc-Andre Fleury. He was second in GAA (2.10) and Save Percentage (.931) and it won’t be long before he is the top Goalie somewhere.
44. (Tie) Darcy Kuemper: Washington Capitals, Goalie:
78 Cup Points, 57 Games, 1.30 Cup Points per Game, 22 Wins, 26 Losses, 7 Ties/Overtime Losses, .908 Save Percentage, 2.87 Goals Against Average, 10.1 Goalie Point Shares (Last Year, #53)
Kuemper was in net when Colorado won the Stanley Cup last year, and he played in just as many games this season in Washington; though he had 15 less Wins. Stat-wise, he was not as good this year, but with less top teammates to absorb Cup Points, he finished higher in the standings.
48. (TIE) Bo Horvat: Vancouver Canucks & New York Islanders, Center
77 Cup Points, 79 Games, 0.98 Cup Points per Game, 38 Goals, 32 Assists, 70 Points, -1, 18 PIM, 55 Blocked Shots, 57 Hits, 38 Takeaways, 37 Giveaways, 7.5 Point Shares. (Last Year, #91)
Horvat was traded from the floundering Canucks to the Islanders during the season, to aid them in their playoff run, though he has not produced at the same level in a New York uniform. Nevertheless, Horvat reached 70 Points for the first time in his career.
48 (TIE). Brock Nelson: New York Islanders, Center
77 Cup Points, 82 Games, 0.94 Cup Points per Game, 36 Goals, 39 Assists, 75 Points, +13, 24 PIM, 43 Blocked Shots, 50 Hits, 48 Takeaways, 40 Giveaways, 9.1 Point Shares. (Last Year, #63)
Nelson has emerged as New York’s top offensive stud, and though he is 31, just posted his best offensive year to date. He also had his first 200-plus Shot campaign (222).
48 (TIE). Jack Eichel: Vegas Golden Knights, Center
77 Cup Points, 67 Games, 1.15 Cup Points per Game, 27 Goals, 39 Assists, 66 Points, +26, 6 PIM, 56 Blocked Shots, 59 Hits, 47 Takeaways, 54 Giveaways, 7.8 Point Shares. (Last Year, #256)
The playoff drought for Eichel ended this year, with the Center enjoying a taste of the postseason for the first time. Held to only 25 Points n 34 Games last year, Eichel was healthier and had his first solid campaign in three years.
52 (TIE). Artemi Panarin: New York Rangers, Left Wing
76 Cup Points, 82 Games, 0.93 Cup Points per Game, 29 Goals, 63 Assists, 92 Points, +4, 11 Blocked Shots, 26 Hits, 36 Takeaways, 102 Giveaways, 9.1 Point Shares. (Last Year, #15)
Panarin plummeted in the Cup Standings but his Point tally only dropped by four, though his Takeaway/Giveaway record (36/102) was poor. This is the third time in four seasons that he cracked 90 Points.
52. (TIE) Mark Scheifele: Winnipeg Jets, Center
76 Cup Points, 81 Games, 0.94 Cup Points per Game, 42 Goals, 26 Assists, 68 Points, -17, 43 PIM, 38 Blocked Shots, 50 Hits, 61 Takeaways, 45 Giveaways, 7.3 Point Shares. (Last Year, #98)
A Jet for all of his twelve seasons, Scheifele had seasons previously where he had more than the 68 he accrued this year, but this is the first time he broke 40 Goals. He also was ninth in Goals (42), but more impressively fourth in Game-Winning Goals (10).
54. Carter Verhaeghe: Florida Panthers, Center
75 Cup Points, 81 Games, 0.94 Cup Points per Game, 42 Goals, 31 Assists, 73 Points, +10, 46 PIM, 31 Blocked Shots, 29 Hits, 35 Takeaways, 56 Giveaways, 8.7 Point Shares. (Last Year, #200)
Verhaeghe had the same amounts of Assists (31) as last year, but he added 18 Goals, bringing this season’s total to 42, where he was ninth overall. More impressively, Verhaeghe was fourth in Even Strength Goals with 35.
55. Anze Kopitar: Los Angeles Kings, Center
74 Cup Points, 82 Games, 0.90 Cup Points per Game, 28 Goals, 46 Assists, 74 Points, +20, 4 PIM, 71 Blocked Shots, 72 Hits, 48 Takeaways, 30 Giveaways, 5.7 Point Shares. (Last Year, #58)
Kopitar is in the latter half of his career, but is still a productive two-way player who will likely receive some votes for the Selke. He is a former Lady Byng and two-time Selke winner and has two Stanley Cup Rings, and his 74 Points is his highest total since 2017/18.
56 (TIE). Rasmus Dahlin: Buffalo Sabres, Defense
73 Cup Points, 78 Games, 0.94 Cup Points per Game, 15 Goals, 58 Assists, 73 Points, +12, 92 PIM, 132 Blocked Shots, 105 Hits, 45 Takeaways, 61 Giveaways, 10.2 Point Shares. (Last Year, #158)
Dahlin had a rocket-like start to the season, growing 20 Points from last year’s total. The Defenseman went to his second straight All-Star Game, and should have many more in his future.
56 (TIE). Jared McCann: Seattle Kraken, Center
73 Cup Points, 79 Games, 0.92 Cup Points per Game, 40 Goals, 30 Assists, 70 Points, +18, 14 PIM, 71 Blocked Shots, 72 Hits, 48 Takeaways, 30 Giveaways, 8.9 Point Shares. (Last Year, #178)
The Center had a great year where he had his first 40 Goal and 70 Point year, 20 Points more than last year’s previous best.
58 (TIE). Jeff Skinner: Buffalo Sabres, Left Wing & Center
72 Cup Points, 79 Games, 0.91 Cup Points per Game, 35 Goals, 47 Assists, 82 Points, +15, 29 PIM, 14 Blocked Shots, 21 Hits, 41 Takeaways, 46 Giveaways, 9.3 Point Shares. (Last Year, #72)
Skinner won the 2011 Calder with 63 Points; a tally he reached three times after. This season, he finally broke that mark with 82 Points, with a +15, the first time he had a positive Plus/Minus.
58. (Tie) Tyler Toffoli: Calgary Flames, Center
72 Cup Points, 82 Games, 0.88 Cup Points per Game, 34 Goals, 39 Assists, 73 Points, +16, 28 PIM, 14 Blocked Shots, 59 Hits, 41 Takeaways, 32 Giveaways, 8.6 Point Shares. (Last Year, #175)
The previous season of Toffoli’s career was way back in 2015-16 when he had 58 Points and led the league in Plus/Minus (+35). That is no longer the case, as he set personal marks in Goals (34), Assists (39) and Points (73).
58. (Tie) Chris Kreider: New York Rangers, Left Wing
72 Cup Points, 79 Games, 0.77 Cup Points per Game, 36 Goals, 18 Assists, 54 Points, +21, 26 PIM, 24 Blocked Shots, 128 Hits, 31 Takeaways, 39 Giveaways, 10.7 Point Shares. (Last Year, #13)
We mused that last season was going to be Kreider’s best year, and that will probably be the case. This is easily his second best season, and though he dropped significantly in Goals (52 to 36), it is still a good year.
61. Cale Makar: Colorado Avalanche, Defense
71 Cup Points, 60 Games, 0.92 Cup Points per Game, 17 Goals, 49 Assists, 66 Points, +16, 30 PIM, 78 Blocked Shots, 65 Hits, 50 Takeaways, 48 Giveaways, 10.5 Point Shares. (Last Year, #43)
Makar is one of the many stars of the Avs, and he had the year of his life last season when he won the Norris and Conn Smythe in the same year, joining a club with only Bobby Orr as a co-member. This year, the young defenseman missed to many games to win a Norris, but he was still one a of the few blueliners to average over a Point per Game. Makar also went to his second straight All-Star Game.
61. (TIE) Ville Husso: Detroit Red Wings, Goalie:
71 Cup Points, 56 Games, 1.27 Cup Points per Game, 26 Wins, 22 Losses, 7 Ties/Overtime Losses, .896 Save Percentage, 3.11 Goals Against Average, 7.7 Goalie Point Shares (Last Year, #93)
Husso is an example of a busy and competent Goalie on a non-playoff team, and though his GAA went up from last year (2.64 to 3.15), he appeared in 16 more Games.
63. (TIE) Jake Guentzel: Pittsburgh Penguins, Center
71 Cup Points, 78 Games, 0.91 Cup Points per Game, 36 Goals, 37 Assists, 73 Points, +2, 46 PIM, 46 Blocked Shots, 83 Hits, 44 Takeaways, 48 Giveaways, 7.9 Point Shares. (Last Year, #61)
Guentzel had his third 35-Goal campaign, and could have a few more in him if he remains healthy.
64. Evgeni Malkin: Pittsburgh Penguins, Center
70 Cup Points, 82 Games, 0.85 Cup Points per Game, 27 Goals, 56 Assists, 83 Points, -12, 82 PIM, 33 Blocked Shots, 53 Hits, 82 Takeaways, 105 Giveaways, 7.6 Point Shares. (Last Year, #61)
Malkin broke 80 Points for the first time in 2017-18, and the former Hart winner continues to add to his Hall of Fame resume.
65 (TIE). Anders Lee: New York Islanders, Left Wing
69 Cup Points, 82 Games, 0.84 Cup Points per Game, 28 Goals, 22 Assists, 50 Points, -3, 50 PIM, 57 Blocked Shots, 125 Hits, 25 Takeaways, 35 Giveaways, 5.4 Point Shares. (Last Year, #166)
Lee concluded his 11th Season in the NHL, all of which as a New York Islander. This was the first time since 2018-19 that he scored 50 Points.
65 (TIE). Travis Konecny: Philadelphia Flyers, Center
69 Cup Points, 60 Games, 1.15 Cup Points per Game, 31 Goals, 30 Assists, 61 Points, -12, 77 PIM, 38 Blocked Shots, 55 Hits, 34 Takeaways, 26 Giveaways, 6.6 Point Shares. (Last Year, #130)
Konecny had his first 30 Goal year, and the seven-year veteran appears to be hitting his stride. He was the Flyers leading scorer.
67 (TIE). Dylan Larkin: Detroit Red Wings, Right Wing
68 Cup Points, 80 Games, 0.85 Cup Points per Game, 32 Goals, 47 Assists, 79 Points, -7, 45 PIM, 27 Blocked Shots, 47 Hits, 56 Takeaways, 47 Giveaways, 8.0 Point Shares. (Last Year, #67)
Larkin finished with the same rank as last year, though he improved his Point tally to 79, his new career-best. The Red Wing also went to his third All-Star Game.
67 (TIE). Zach Hyman: Edmonton Oilers, Left Wing
68 Cup Points, 79 Games, 0.86 Cup Points per Game, 36 Goals, 47 Assists, 83 Points, +13, 39 PIM, 19 Blocked Shots, 77 Hits, 33 Takeaways, 30 Giveaways, 8.8 Point Shares. (Last Year, #215)
Hyman had never had more than 54 Points in a season, but he shattered than in year 9 with 83.
69. Marc-Andre Fleury: Minnesota Wild, Goalie:
67 Cup Points, 46 Games, 1.45 Cup Points per Game, 24 Wins, 16 Losses, 4 Ties/Overtime Losses, .908 Save Percentage, 2.85 Goals Against Average, 8.2 Goalie Point Shares (Last Year, #46).
Despite being in his late 30s, Fleury remains in the upper bracket of netminders and played a large part of Minnesota’s success this year.
70 (TIE). Adrian Kempe: Los Angeles Kings, Left Wing
66 Cup Points, 82 Games, 0.80 Cup Points per Game, 41 Goals, 26 Assists, 67 Points, +22, 50 PIM, 32 Blocked Shots, 119 Hits, 24 Takeaways, 39 Giveaways, 8.5 Point Shares. (Last Year, #44)
Kempe dropped in Cup Points, but we said much earlier that this is a unique metric. He secured his first 40 Goal year, with a career-high 67 Points.
70 (TIE). Carter Hart: Philadelphia Flyers, Goalie
66 Cup Points, 55 Games, 1.20 Cup Points per Game, 22 Wins, 23 Losses, 10 Ties/Overtime Losses, .907 Save Percentage, 2.94 Goals Against Average, 9.9 Goalie Point Shares (Last Year, #133).
Carter Hart saw a lot of action for the sub-par Flyers, and while he was not in the top ten in any major statistics, he lowered his GAA to a respectable 2.94.
72 (TIE). Jordan Binnington: St. Louis Blues, Goalie
65 Cup Points, 61 Games, 1.07 Cup Points per Game, 27 Wins, 27 Losses, 6 Ties/Overtime Losses, .894 Save Percentage, 3.31 Goals Against Average, 8.4 Goalie Point Shares (Last Year, #133).
The Blues went into disposal mode this year, and while Binnington arguably did not have a great year, he was able to accrue a lot of Cup Points as he did steal Wins on occasion for St. Louis.
72. (TIE) Andrei Kuzmenko: Vancouver Canucks, Center
65 Cup Points, 81 Games, 0.86 Cup Points per Game, 28 Goals, 29 Assists, 57 Points, +2, 21 PIM, 17 Blocked Shots, 76 Hits, 40 Takeaways, 30 Giveaways, 6.1 Point Shares. (Last Year, Not Ranked)
Vancouver was not very good this year, but they had a rare bright spot in Kuzmenko, who debuted in the NHL at age 26 after making a mark in the KHL. It was a good rookie year for Kuzmenko, who was one of the best offensive players the Canucks had, though it could be hard for him to duplicate. Notably, he led the NHL in Shot Percentage (27.3).
72. (Tie) Jonathan Marchessault: Vegas Golden Knights, Center
65 Cup Points, 76 Games, 0.86 Cup Points per Game, 28 Goals, 29 Assists, 57 Points, +2, 21 PIM, 17 Blocked Shots, 76 Hits, 40 Takeaways, 30 Giveaways, 6.1 Point Shares. (Last Year, #53)
Marchessault had another good year, and was fortunate to have more help around him than he had last year. He did not make it to 30 Goals this year, but is a large reason that Vegas was the number one seed in the West.
75 (TIE). Alex Tuch: Buffalo Sabres, Right Wing
64 Cup Points, 74 Games, 0.87 Cup Points per Game, 36 Goals, 43 Assists, 79 Points, +14, 20 PIM, 46 Blocked Shots, 54 Hits, 64 Takeaways, 38 Giveaways, 9.0 Point Shares. (Last Year, #200)
Tuch’s second season in Buffalo has been his best in the NHL. This is the Right Wing’s first season with over 35 Goals and 75 Points. Tuch was fifth in Game-Winning Goals (9).
75 (TIE). Matthew Boldly: Minnesota Wild, Left Wing
64 Cup Points, 81 Games, 0.79 Cup Points per Game, 31 Goals, 32 Assists, 63 Points, +1, 26 PIM, 65 Blocked Shots, 51 Hits, 42 Takeaways, 74 Giveaways, 6.9 Point Shares. (Last Year, #67)
Boldy is a native of Minnesota, and has done well in his brief time with the Wild. The second-year player, increased his production from 39 to 63 Points.
77 (TIE). Adam Fox: New York Rangers, Defense
63 Cup Points, 82 Games, 0.77 Cup Points per Game, 12 Goals, 60 Assists, 72 Points, +28, 34 PIM, 125 Blocked Shots, 25 Hits, 88 Takeaways, 74 Giveaways, 11.9 Point Shares. (Last Year, #67)
Fox won the Norris two years ago, and will receive votes again this season. This was his second straight 70-Point year, third campaign with over 100 Blocked Shots, and he is one of the many blueliners hampered by the Cup Point structure, though this is still a good finish. Fox also added a second All-Star.
77 (TIE). Vitek Vanacek: New Jersey Devils, Goalie
63 Cup Points, 52 Games, 1.21 Cup Points per Game, 33 Wins, 11 Losses, 4 Ties/Overtime Losses, .911 Save Percentage, 2.45 Goals Against Average, 8.4 Goalie Point Shares (Last Year, #442)
Vanacek was a large part of New Jersey’s return to the playoffs and the Czech Goalie concluded the campaign seventh in Wins (33) and eighth in GAA (2.46).
77. (Tie) Alex DeBrincat: Ottawa Senators, Right Wing
63 Cup Points, 82 Games, 0.77 Cup Points per Game, 27 Goals, 39 Assists, 66 Points, -21, 45 PIM, 38 Blocked Shots, 109 Hits, 44 Takeaways, 39 Giveaways, 8.4 Point Shares. (Last Year, #20)
DeBrincat was traded to Ottawa who were hoping for a playoff spot this year. It did not happen, and he was not as good in his first year as a Senator as he was in his last year as a Blackhawk.
77. (Tie) Pierre-Luc Dubois: Winnipeg Jets, Left Wing:
63 Cup Points, 73 Games, 0.86 Cup Points per Game, 27 Goals, 36 Assists, 63 Points, +5, 77 PIM, 47 Blocked Shots, 71 Hits, 40 Takeaways, 47 Giveaways, 6.6 Point Shares. (Last Year, #115)
Dubois had his second straight 60-Point year and his third overall.
81. (Tie) Brad Marchand: Boston Bruins, Left Wing:
62 Cup Points, 73 Games, 0.85 Cup Points per Game, 21 Goals, 46 Assists, 67 Points, +27, 74 PIM, 22 Blocked Shots, 81 Hits, 42 Takeaways, 84 Giveaways, 7.0 Point Shares. (Last Year, #40)
Marchand dropped 13 Points from last year, and appears to be in decline, but the four-time postseason All-Star is a great leader and still better than most of the league.
81. (Tie) Patrice Bergeron: Boston Bruins, Center
62 Cup Points, 78 Games, 0.80 Cup Points per Game, 27 Goals, 31 Assists, 58 Points, +35, 22 PIM, 54 Blocked Shots, 66 Hits, 38 Takeaways, 21 Giveaways, 7.0 Point Shares.
Bergeron has already accomplished so much as a Stanley Cup Champion, five-time Selke winner, a Mark Messier Leadership Award winner, but he has a lot left as shown by doing this year what he has always done for the last sixteen. Notably, Bergeron joined the 1,000 Point Club this year.
81 (TIE). Nazem Kadri: Calgary Flames, Center
62 Cup Points, 82 Games, 0.76 Cup Points per Game, 24 Goals, 32 Assists, 56 Points, -19, 56 PIM, 31 Blocked Shots, 99 Hits, 34 Takeaways, 50 Giveaways, 4.7 Point Shares. (Last Year, #45)
Kadri had the most incredible campaign of his life in 2021-22, winning a Stanley Cup and setting personal bests. The now 14-year veteran could not post similar numbers in his first year in Calgary, but it was a solid debut in Southern Alberta.
81 (TIE). Stuart Skinner: Edmonton Oilers, Goalie
62 Cup Points, 50 Games, 1.24 Cup Points per Game, 29 Wins, 14 Losses, 5 Ties/Overtime Losses, .913 Save Percentage, 2.75 Goals Against Average, 10.1 Goalie Point Shares (Last Year, #442).
Skinner took over at Edmonton’s top Goalie, playing in between the pipes in 50 Games, well up from 13 last season. He went to the All-Star Game this year, and was tenth in Goalie Point Shares (10.1)
81. (Tie) J.T. Miller: Vancouver Canucks, Center
62 Cup Points, 81 Games, 0.77 Cup Points per Game, 32 Goals, 50 Assists, 82 Points, -7, 60 PIM, 51 Blocked Shots, 200 Hits, 58 Takeaways, 46 Giveaways, 7.5 Point Shares.
Miller matched his 32 Goals, but was down 17 Assists from last season.
86. (TIE) Andrei Svechnikov: Carolina Hurricanes, Right Wing:
61 Cup Points, 64 Games, 0.95 Cup Points per Game, 23 Goals, 32 Assists, 55 Points, +6, 71 PIM, 17 Blocked Shots, 140 Hits, 35 Takeaways, 49 Giveaways, 6.1 Point Shares. (Last Year, #26)
The Second Overall Pick from 2018, Svechnikov continues his gradual improvement, though he missed significant time this year, resulting in a Cup Point Standing tumble. At only 23, a 100-Point year is possible.
87. (TIE) Owen Tippett: Philadelphia Flyers, Right Wing
61 Cup Points, 77 Games, 0.79 Cup Points per Game, 27 Goals, 22 Assists, 49 Points, -17, 16 PIM, 69 Blocked Shots, 125 Hits, 44 Takeaways, 23 Giveaways, 4.7 Point Shares.
Tippett proved his worth as an NHL player this season, and considering how long the player he was traded for, Claude Giroux, played in Florida, it could be a potential steal.
87 (TIE). Ilya Samsonov: Toronto Maple Leafs, Goalie
61 Cup Points, 42 Games, 1.44 Cup Points per Game, 27 Wins, 10 Losses, 5 Ties/Overtime Losses, .919 Save Percentage, 2.33 Goals Against Average, 8.5 Goalie Point Shares (Last Year, #245).
Samsonov joined Toronto this year, and performed well, finishing sixth in Save Percentage (.919) and fifth in Goals Against Average (2.33).
89. (TIE) Viktor Arvidsson: Los Angeles Kings, Left Wing
60 Cup Points, 77 Games, 0.87 Cup Points per Game, 26 Goals, 33 Assists, 59 Points, -4, 24 PIM, 48 Blocked Shots, 25 Hits, 19 Takeaways, 35 Giveaways, 5.7 Point Shares. (Last Year, #158)
Arvidsson was one Point shy of 60, which was also two short of his previous high, which he last had as a Nashville Predator in 2017-18.
89. (TIE) Nico Hischier: New Jersey Devils, Center:
60 Cup Points, 81 Games, 0.74 Cup Points per Game, 31 Goals, 49 Assists, 80 Points, +33, 32 PIM, 61 Blocked Shots, 34 Hits, 64 Takeaways, 41 Giveaways, 9.2 Point Shares. (Last Year, #143)
Hischier grew his Point tally by 20 from last year, giving him a career-hih of 80. He also posted a personal best in Goals (33) and Plus/Minus (+33).
91. (TIE) Miro Heiskanen: Dallas Stars, Defense:
59 Cup Points, 79 Games, 0.75 Cup Points per Game, 11 Goals, 62 Assists, 73 Points, +12, 32 PIM, 96 Blocked Shots, 49 Hits, 53 Takeaways, 65 Giveaways, 11.1 Point Shares. (Last Year, #305)
In his fifth NHL season, Heiskanen more than doubled his previous high in Points (36), and should break his previous high in Norris voting (12th). Heiskanen lost many Cup Points through the season to his Goalie, Jake Oettinger, but we expect he will have a lot more next year.
91. (Tie) Aleksander Barkov: Florida Panthers, Center:
59 Cup Points, 68 Games, 0.87 Cup Points per Game, 23 Goals, 55 Assists, 78 Points, +10, 8 PIM, 42 Blocked Shots, 50 Hits, 59 Takeaways, 51 Giveaways, 7.3 Point Shares. (Last Year, #26)
A special under-the-radar player due to playing on a low-profile team, Barkov is a former Lady Byng and Selke Winner, and is now a two-time All-Star. Barkov may not be as recognized as he should, but a Stanley Cup might change that. He dropped ten Points from last year and a lot more in Cup Points.
91. (Tie) Kyle Connor: Winnipeg Jets, Left Wing
59 Cup Points, 82 Games, 0.82 Cup Points per Game, 31 Goals, 49 Assists, 80 Points, -11, 20 PIM, 24 Blocked Shots, 43 Hits, 42 Takeaways, 40 Giveaways, 7.5 Point Shares.
Connor had another good year, though his Goal output dropped by 16. As he is still well under 30, a 50-Goal campaign for Connor is not out of the question.
94 (TIE). Johnny Gaudreau: Columbus Blue Jackets, Left Wing:
58 Cup Points, 80 Games, 0.73 Cup Points per Game, 21 Goals, 53 Assists, 74 Points, -33, 22 PIM, 18 Blocked Shots, 5 Hits, 49 Takeaways, 50 Giveaways, 5.7 Point Shares. (Last Year, #7)

Phew!!! That took a while!
Thank you for reading, and look for more content like this in the future.
Two years ago, Notinhalloffame.com awarded the first ever NBA NIHOF Regular Season Cup, which was a mammoth undertaking.
Denver’s Nikola Jokic, who also won the MVP, was awarded the inaugural Cup. Last year, the multi-faceted European won it again, along with a second MVP.
The NIHOF NBA Cup is deduced by awarding the best five players in the game with descending points, 5-4-3-2-1. Obviously, we can’t watch all the games, but box scores and write ups give an approximate idea as to who were each game’s top five.
389 players received at least one point, with 68 cracking at least 100.
The top players for the NBA NIHOF Cup are not always the best in the league, as injuries keep players out of games, and a premium on staying healthy can help pile up points. It also does not hurt to be a top player on an average or mediocre team, as they can amass Cup points easier that elite players on loaded squads.
Please remember, that this is NOT necessarily who we think were the best players this year, and does not reflect overall consistency, but snapshots of each game.
Treat this the way did, as a fun process and more of a compilation of temporary statistical domination.
So, like we said the last two years, NBA players! Get your agents to work winning this into your contracts!
Last year, Nikola Jokic, the Denver Nuggets Center from Serbia won the first two cups. Did he three-repeat?
In a word, no; but he was close!
Here are the 2022/23 rankings for the NBA NIHOF CUP:
1. Joel Embiid: Philadelphia 76ers, Center:
284 PTS, 66 Games, 4.30 Cup Points per Game, 33.1 PPG, 10.2 RPG, 4.2 APG, 1.0 SPG, 1.7 BPG, 31.4 PER, 12.3 WS. (Last Year, #2, 292 Pts in 68 Games)
Embiid took over in the Cup Standing in the last two weeks, to capture his first NIHOF CUP, which will likely be joined by his first MVP. Also winning his second consecutive Scoring Title, Embiid added a sixth All-Star, won back-to-back Player of the Month Awards (December & January), four Player of the Weeks, and was eighth in both Rebounds and Blocks per Game. Embiid also led the NBA in Field Goals (728), 2-Point Field Goals (662) and in regards to advanced stats, was second in PER and Box Plus/Minus (9.2), third in VORP (6.4) and fourth in Win Shares. This is the best year of Embiid’s career, but not by much, as he has been fantastic for a long time.
2. Nikola Jokic: Denver Nuggets, Center:
273 PTS, 69 Games, 3.96 Cup Points per Game, 24.5 PPG, 11.8 RPG, 9.8 APG, 1.3 SPG, 0.7 BPG, 31.5 PER, 14.9 WS. (Last Year, #1, 331 Pts in 74 Games)
Jokic won the MVP and our Notinhalloffame NBA Cup the last two seasons, and up until two weeks before season’s end, was leading in Cup Points this year, although it was not until late in the season that he was at the top of the standings. This season, Jokic was .2 APG away from averaging a Triple-Double, which would have given him two in a row. Leading the Nuggets to the top seed in the West, Jokic is now a five-time All-Star, and captured two more Player of the Month awards, giving him six in total. The Serbian superstar was second in Rebounds per Game, third in Assists per Game, and would lead the NBA in True Shooting Percentage (.701), PER, Win Shares, VORP (8.8) and Box Plus/Minus (13.0).
3. Jayson Tatum: Boston Celtics, Power Forward:
266 PTS, 74 Games, 3.60 Cup Points per Game, 30.1 PPG, 8.8 RPG, 4.6 APG, 1.1 SPG, 0.7 BPG, 23.7 PER, 10.5 WS (Last Year, #4, 274 Points in 76 Games)
If we look at the primary advanced stats, Tatum’s numbers, while great, are visibly lower than the others in the top five. Nevertheless, Tatum’s traditional numbers are the best of his career, and for the first time he broke the 30 PPG, ending the year sixth in PPG and first in overall Points (2,225), which according to Jalen Rose, means he won the Scoring Title. Tatum won the inaugural Eastern Conference MVP last year, and could do so again on a contending Celtics squad.
4. Giannis Antetokounmpo: Milwaukee Bucks, Forward:
265 PTS, 63 Games, 4.20 Cup Points per Game, 29.9 PPG, 11.6 RPG, 5.8 APG, 1.1 SPG, 1.4 BPG, 32.1 PER (Last Year, #3, 289 Pts in 67 Games)
Antetokounmpo won the 2019 and 2020 MVP, and is still one of the best players in the NBA. The “Greek Freak” has no weakness in his game, and the Bucks will go as far as he can take him. Antetokounmpo was in the running for the Cup this year, but he missed considerable time. Averaging more Cup Points per Game than Embiid, Antetokounmpo also went to his seventh All-Star Game, added four Player of the Week Awards, and was fifth in Points per Game and third in Rebounds per Game. He was also third in PER this season.
5. Luka Doncic: Dallas Mavericks, Guard:
262 PTS, 66 Games, 3.97 Cup Points per Game, 32.4 PPG, 8.6 RPG, 8.0 APG, 1.4 SPG, 0.5 BPG, 28.7 PER, 10.2 WS (Last Year, #6, 262 Points in 65 Games)
Over the first half of the year, Doncic was often leading the Cup Standings, and we openly had him as the likely MVP. This changed when they traded for Kyrie Irving, and while the number two option on Dallas increased, the depth they did have was crushed and the chemistry was gone. Doncic, who had a few minor injuries in the second half, also grew visibly frustrated, and the Mavericks failed to make the playoffs, making Luka the highest ranked non-playoff player. Statistically, Doncic was great, finishing second in PPG, and posting a career-high PER and adding a fourth All-Star, a Player of the Month and two Player of the Weeks, but the way it ended for Doncic and Dallas was a colossal disappointment. Saying that, Doncic is still the best basketball player who is under 25.
6. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander: Oklahoma City Thunder, Point Guard
260 PTS, 68 Games, 3.82 Cup Points per Game, 31.4 PPG, 4.8 RPG, 5.5 APG, 1.6 SPG, 1.0 BPG, 27.2 PER, 11.4 WS (Last Year, #27, 160 Points in 56 Games)
This was the breakout year that many predicted for SGA, and he shattered last year’s numbers (24.5 to 31.4 PPG & 20.9 to 27.2 PER), most notably doubling his Win Shares (4.6 to 11.4) and VORP (2.7 to 5.6). Gilgeous-Alexander went to his first All-Star Game, was fourth in PPG and sixth in PER. No other top ten player on this list rose as much as SGA.
7. Trae Young: Atlanta Hawks, Point Guard:
241 PTS, 73 Games, 3.30 Cup Points per Game, 26.2 PPG, 3.0 RPG, 10.2 APG, 1.1 SPG, 0.1 BPG, 22.0 PER, 6.7 WS (Last Year, #5, 267 Points in 76 Games)
While Young was not considered the best player to have missed out on the 2023 All-Star Game, he is the highest in Cup Points to have this dubious distinction. Young is in his fifth year, the last four of which seeing the Point Guard eclipse 25 Points per Game. The Hawk was second in Assists and ninth in Points per Game, but Atlanta has not progressed, with Young needing to add more facets to his game for the squad to progress.
#8. Domantas Sabonis: Sacramento Kings, Center:
237 PTS, 79 Games, 3.00 Cup Points per Game, 19.1 PPG, 12.3 RPG, 7.3 APG, 1.0 SPG, 0.4 BPG, 23.5 PER, 12.6 (Last Year, #28, 159 Points in 62 Games)
Indiana traded Sabonis to the Kings, and it paid off...for the Sacramento. Sabonis, who went back to the top ten (he was #10 two years ago). Led by the second-generation NBA player, and now three-time All-Star, the Kings are in their first playoff in years, doing so on the strength of Sabonis’ first Rebounding Title. Sabonis also finished in the first time in the top ten in VORP (sixth, 5.4) and he had a career-high in Triple-Doubles (14), which placed him second.
9. Julius Randle: New York Knicks, Power Forward:
232 PTS, 77 Games, 3.01 Cup Points per Game, 25.1 PPG, 10.0 RPG, 4.1 APG, 0.6 SPG, 0.3 BPG, 20.3 PER, 8.1 WS (Last Year, #20, 177 Points in 72 Games)
Two years ago, Randle took his game to the next level, and brought New York to their first playoff in years. The Knicks and Randle regressed last year, but this season, Randle is back to the levels he had in 2020-21, and added a second All-Star to his ledger. Randle finished 13th in PPG, ninth in PPG and will return to the postseason.
10. Steph Curry: Golden State Warriors, Point Guard:
219 PTS, 56 Games, 3.91 Cup Points per Game, 29.4 PPG, 6.1 RPG, 6.3 APG, 1.3 SPG, 0.4 BPG, 24.1 PER, 7.8 WS (Last Year #12, 210 Points in 64 Games)
Curry was making a run for the top in Cup Points earlier in the season, but he lost a month-plus due to injury, which cost him over 20 Games. The former two-time MVP and four-time NBA Champion had a better Cup Point/per Game average this year, and had it translated over 70 Games, he might have added another MVP. Curry would however add a ninth All-Star and nineteenth Player of the Week nod this year.
11. Lauri Markkanen: Utah Jazz, Small Forward:
218 PTS, 66 Games, 3.30 Cup Points per Game, 25.6 PPG, 8.6 RPG, 1.9 APG, 0.6 SPG, 0.6 BP, 22.1 PER, 8.3 WS (Last Year, #120, 45 Points in 61 Games)
Did you see this coming? Did anyone? Did Lauri? Lauri Markkanen jumped over 100 spots in Cup Standings, and should be a lock for the Most Improved Player in the Year. Markkanen’s Jazz were expected to be basement dwellers, and we thought we already saw his apex. All of Markkanen’s numbers destroy anything he ever did previously, and his first year in Utah was magical. An All-Star for the first time, Markkanen might be on to something special.
12. Ja Morant: Memphis Grizzlies, Point Guard
217 PTS, 61 Games, 3.56 Cup Points per Game, 26.2 PPG, 5.9 RPG, 8.1 APG, 1.1 SPG, 0.3 BPG, 23.3 PER, 6.0 WS (Last Year, #17, 193 Points in 57 Games)
Hmmm. Okay. Ja Morant, the player, over the first two thirds of the season was spectacular, but then the wannabe gangster flashed a gun on Instagram, got suspended, and returned as a shell. He was in the top ten of Cup Points for most of the year, with Memphis as a contender, but we have a man with maturity issues and what could be (as of this writing) self-doubt. None of this changes that he is the face of a contender, but Morant would not be the first to crack under that. Beyond that, Morant went to his second All-Star Game this year, finishing eleventh in Points and fifth in Assists per Game.
13. Jaylen Brown: Boston Celtics, Small Forward
211 PTS, 67 Games, 3.15 Cup Points per Game, 26.6 PPG, 6.9 RPG, 3.5 APG, 1.1 SPG, 0.3 BPG, 19.1 PER, 5.0 WS (Last Year, #22, 175 Points in 66 Games)
There has to be a team that becomes the first to boast two players on a descending rank and it is the Boston Celtics, with Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown. Brown, who added a second All-Star appearance this year, also compile a third Player of the Week Award. He finished the season ninth in Points per Game.
14. Anthony Edwards: Minnesota Timberwolves, Shooting Guard
207 PTS, 72 Games, 2.88 Cup Points per Game, 24.4 PPG, 5.8 RPG, 4.4 APG, 1.6 SPG, 0.7 BPG, 17.4 PER, 3.8 WS (Last Year, #38, 135 Points in 72 Games)
Edwards missed out on the Rookie of the Year to Scottie Barnes, but in year three, it is Edwards who is ahead. The Guard improved all of his metrics, both traditional and advanced, and he went to his first All-Star Game. The Timberwolves disappointed, but Edwards did not, and is still on the rise.
15. Anthony Davis: Los Angeles Lakers, Center
203 PTS, 56 Games, 3.62 Cup Points per Game, 25.9 PPG, 12.5 RPG, 2.6 APG, 1.1 SPG, 2.0 BPG, 27.8 PER, 9.0 WS (Last Year, #52, 113 PTS, 40 Games)
It has felt for years that Davis has spent more time on IR than on the court, and this year was no exception, although his 56 Games was the most, he appeared in three years. “The Brow” had his highest RPG (12.5) of his career, and arguably carried Los Angeles this year more than LeBron did.
16. Damian Lillard: Portland Trail Blazers, Point Guard:
202 PTS, 58 Games, 3.48 Cup Points per Game, 32.2 PPG, 4.8 RPG, 7.3 APG, 0.9 SPG, 0.3 BPG, 26.7 PER, 9.0 WS (Last Year, #88, 70 Points in 29 Games)
Lillard only played 30 Games in 2021-22, and 58 this year, where he might be frustrated with the pieces around him, but the Blazers’ Guard is still a superstar, and statistically was phenomenal. Whether or not his career has been a waste in the Pacific Northwest is to be determined, but when he plays, he still dominates. Lillard also added All-Star number seven this year, and has his best per Game Averages of his career.
17. Donovan Mitchell: Cleveland Cavaliers, Guard
198 PTS, 68 Games, 2.91 Cup Points per Game, 28.3 PPG, 4.3 RPG, 4.4 APG, 1.5 SPG, 0.2 BPG, 22.9 PER, 8.9 (Last Year, #16, 197 Points in 67 Games)
Now a Cleveland Cavalier, Mitchell led the Cavs to a solid playoff spot and joined the 70 Points per Game club this year. Adding a fourth All-Star this year, Mitchell was seventh in PPG (28.3), added two Player of the Week Awards, and was in the top 20 in PER for the first time in his career. It is easy to see who has done better between Mitchell and his former teammate, Rudy Gobert.
18 (TIE). DeMar DeRozan: Chicago Bulls, Forward
193 PTS, 74 Games, 2.61 Cup Points per Game, 24.5 PPG, 4.6 RPG, 5.1 APG, 1.1 SPG, 0.5 BPG, 23.1 PER, 8.5 WS (Last year, #9, 239 Points in 76 Games).
DeRozan dd not match what he did in his first year in Chicago but was still good enough to make his sixth All-Star, and perhaps push himself on the other side of the Hall of Fame conversation. This may not be a great year for the Bulls, but history will paint it well for DeRozan on regards to Springfield.
18. (TIE) Bam Adebayo: Miami Heat, Center
193 PTS, 75 Games, 2.57 Cup Points per Game, 20.4 PPG, 9.2 RPG, 3.2 APG, 1.2 SPG, 0.8 BPG, 20.1 PER, 7.4 WS (Last Year, #30, 152 Points in 56 Games)
Adebayo was healthier this year and added a second All-Star Game to his resume, and he had his first 20-plus PPG year. He could potentially add a fourth straight All-Defensive Selection.
20. (TIE) LeBron James: Los Angeles Lakers, Forward
190 PTS, 55 Games, 3.46 Cup Points per Game, 28.9 PPG, 8.3 RPG, 6.8 APG, 0.9 SPG, 0.6 BPG, 23.9 PER, 5.6 WS (Last Year, #10, 225 Points in 56 Games)
James missed over 20 Games again, but when he was on the court, he was the same game-running LBJ. The Lakers superstar broke Kareem Abdul-Jabbar’s all-time Points record this year, and added his 19th All-Star Game, as well as two more Player of the Weeks, to give him a staggering 67. Father Time catches up to everyone, but it seems that he is waiting longer to meet James.
20 (TIE). Kyrie Irving: Brooklyn Nets & Dallas Mavericks, Point Guard
190 PTS, 60 Games, 3.17 Cup Points per Game, 27.1 PPG, 5.1 RPG, 5.5 APG, 1.1 SPG, 0.8 BPG, 22.4 PER, 7.4 WS (Last Year, #22, 88 Points in 29 Games)
Kyrie Irving is drama. We knew this from the COVID-19 Season, but this year he was labelled as anti-semetic, and feuded with Nets owner, Joe Tsai. He asked for a trade, and got one to Dallas, where he not only did not make them better, the Mavericks missed the playoffs. So, how is he ranked this high? Because when he plays he produces. Irving went to his eighth All-Star, and his 27.1 PPG was his second best. We know that we will see more of the same from Irving in 2023/24 regardless of what uniform he has on.
22. Pascal Siakam: Toronto Raptors, Center
187 PTS, 71 Games, 2.63 Cup Points per Game, 24.2 PPG, 7.8 RPG, 5.8 APG, 0.9 SPG, 0.5 BPG, 20.3 PER, 7.8 WS (Last Year, #14, 205 Points in 68 Games)
Siakim went to his second All-Star Game, and set a career-high PPG of 24.2. The big man from Cameroon led the NBA in Minutes per Game for the second year in a row (37.4).
23. Kristaps Porzingis: Washington Wizards, Center
185 PTS, 65 Games, 2.85 Cup Points per Game, 23.2 PPG, 8.4 RPG, 2.7 APG, 0.9 SPG, 1.5 BPG, 23.1 PER, 7.7 WS (Last Year, #36, 138 Points in 51 Games)
The Wizards might become something in the future, and Porzingis should be able to play a large part in that. This season, Porzingis had his highest PPG (23.2) and landed his third Player of the Week honor. He was also eighth in Blocks per Game (1.5) and for the first time in his career was in the top 20 in PER.
24. Zach LaVine: Chicago Bears, Shooting Guard:
183 PTS, 77 Games, 2.38 Cup Points per Game, 24.8 PPG, 4.5 RPG, 4.2 APG, 0.9 SPG, 0.2 BPG, 19.0 PER, 7.1 WS (Last Year, #21, 176 Points in 67 Games)
LaVine had another good year statistically, but the Bulls remain a mid-level squad with no depth. This marked the fifth straight season that LaVine had at least 23 Points per Game and he was 15th overall this year.
25. Nikola Vucevic: Chicago Culls, Center:
181 PTS, 82 Games, 2.21 Cup Points per Game, 17.6 PPG, 11.9 RPG, 3.9 APG, 0.7 SPG, 0.7 BPG, 19.1 PER, 8.3 WS (Last Year, #25, 222 Points in 70 Games)
Chicago is the first team to have three players on this list, but you will have to cross the Grand Canyon to find the fourth player. Vucevic, who is now 32, actually saw his stats decline, but when Bulls landed Cup Points it was always the same three (Vucevic, LaVine & DeRozan). He would have the most Defensive Rebounds (744), and was sixth in RPG (6.0)
26. Jimmy Butler: Miami Heat, Guard
179 PTS, 64 Games, 2.80 Cup Points per Game, 22.9 PPG, 5.9 RPG, 5.3 APG, 1.8 SPG, 0.3 BPG, 27.6 PER, 12.3 WS (Last Year, #29 158 Points in 57 Games)
Butler was unable to add a seventh All-Star Game, and it looked like he was in a bit of a decline, but his second half was much better, and his overall number remained consistent from previous campaigns. He had the highest PER of his career (27.6), and posted his seventh 20 PPG year.
27. Kevin Durant: Brooklyn Nets & Phoenix Suns, Small Forward
177 PTS, 47 Games, 3.77 Cup Points per Game, 29.1 PPG, 6.7 RPG, 5.0 APG, 0.7 SPG, 1.4 BPG, 25.9 PER, 6.8 WS (Last Year, #11, 217 Points in 55 Games.
Durant missed a lot of time again this year due to injury, but the drama was off the court when he forced a trade out of Brooklyn. Like so many other superstars on this list, when K.D. plays, he dominates, and early in the year he was the leader in Cup Points. The Suns are an excellent landing spot for Durant, and another championship ring could adorn his fingers.
28. De’Aaron Fox: Sacramento Kings, Point Guard
175 PTS, 73 Games, 2.40 Cup Points per Game, 25.0 PPG, 4.2 RPG, 6.1 APG, 1.1 SPG, 0.3 BPG, 21.8 PER, 7.4 WS (Last Year, #48, 117 Points in 59 Games)
Fox’ sixth year saw him land his first All-Star Game, and not-so-coincidentally Sacramento’s rise to Western Conference power. Fox posted career-bests in PER (21.8), Win Shares (7.4) and VORP (2.7), while adding his third Player of the Week accolade.
29. Jalen Brunson: New York Knicks, Guard
170 PTS, 68 Games, 2.50 Cup Points per Game, 24.0 PPG, 3.5 RPG, 6.2 APG, 0.8 SPG, 0.0 BPG, 21.2, 8.7 PER (Last Year, #50, 116 Points in 73 Games)
Is it a coincidence that the Mavericks failed to make the playoffs, and the New York Knicks did? Probably not. Jalen Brunson had a phenomenal year, rocketing his PPG nearly by eight, and cracking his first PER over 21. He collected his first Player of the Week Award this year.
30. (TIE) Mikal Bridges: Phoenix Suns & Brooklyn Nets, Small Forward:
158 PTS, 83 Games, 1.90 Cup Points per Game, 20.1 PPG, 4.4 RPG, 3.3 APG, 1.1 SPG, 0.7 BPG, 16.8 PER, 7.5 WS (Last Year, #91, 65 Points in 82 Games)
Bridges was traded during the season as part of the four-team transaction that sent Kevin Durant to the Suns, and he had a year that was overshadowed by the drama around him. He grew his PPG from 14.3 to 20.1, logging significant Cup Points as one of the now better players on his second club of the year.
30. (TIE) Devin Booker: Phoenix Suns, Shooting Guard:
158 PTS, 53 Games, 2.98 Cup Points per Game, 27.8 PPG, 4.5 RPG, 5.5 APG, 1.0 SPG, 0.3 BPG, 22.0 PER, 6.0 WSR (Last Year, #7, 240 Points in 68 Games)
Booker slipped from last year, mostly due to injury, but he is still the man who led the Suns last year to their first Finals in decades. The Guard missed an All-Star Game nod, but did add a Player of the Week (his seventh) to his trophy case.
32. Paul George: Los Angeles Clippers, Shooting Guard
155 PTS, 58 Games, 2.67 Cup Points per Game, 23.8 PPG, 6.1 RPG, 5.1 APG, 1.5 SPG, 0.4 BPG, 19.6 PER, 4.6 WS (Last Year, #75, 84 Points in 31 Games)
Paul George was a lot healthier than he was two years ago, though he still missed a lot of action. When he was on the court, George continued to score, adding an eighth consecutive 20-plus PPG year while adding his eighth All-Star Game and an eleventh Player of the Week Award.
33. James Harden: Philadelphia 76ers, Point Guard:
149 PTS, 58 Games, 2.57 Cup Points per Game, 21.0 PPG, 6.1 RPG, 10.7 APG, 0.3 SPG, 0. BPG, 21.6 PER, 8.4 (Last Year, #18, 179 Points in 65 Games)
Harden is the unquestioned number two behind Joel Embiid on the Sixers, but those that predicted a rapid decline this year for the Beard were proven incorrect. This is the 15th year in a row that Harden averaged more than 20 Points per Game.
34 (TIE). Tyrese Haliburton: Indiana Pacers, Point Guard
145 PTS, 56 Games, 2.59 Cup Points per Game, 20.7 PPG, 3.7 RPG, 10.4 APG, 1.6 SPG, 0.4 BPG, 23.6 PER, 7.6 WS (Last Year, #57, 101 Points in 77 Games)
Haliburton had a spectacular first half of the season where he earned his first trip to the All-Star Game. Injuries derailed his second half, but in his first full year as a Pacer, Haliburton averaged a double-double and led the NBA in Assist Percentage (47.6).
34 (TIE). Deandre Ayton: Phoenix Suns, Center
145 PTS, 67 Games, 2.16 Cup Points per Game, 18.0 PPG, 10.0 RPG, 1.7 APG, 0.6 SPG, 0.8 BPG, 19.9 PER, 6. (Last Year, #40, 134 Points in 58 Games)
For the first time in his five professional years, Ayton did not have a PER of at least 20 (it was 19.9), but he maintained his streak of averaging a double-double. For the second straight year, Ayton was tenth in Rebounds per Game.
36. Rudy Gobert: Minnesota Timberwolves, Center:
141 PTS, 70 Games, 2.01 Cup Points per Game, 13.4 PPG, 11.6 RPG, 1.2 APG, 0.8 SPG, 1.4 BPG, 18.9 PER, 7.8 WS (Last Year, #13, 209 Points in 66 Games)
For almost any other Center, these numbers would be really good, but this was his Rudy Gobert’s first year in Minnesota, who gave up a king’s ransom to obtain him. Issues with teammates, a lack of synergy within the Timberwolves and declining numbers could crush this team for years. With all of that said, Gobert still was fourth in RPG, and perhaps a full year with KAT and Anthony Edwards could fix him. Perhaps, it can’t.
37 (TIE). Kawhi Leonard: Los Angeles Clippers, Small Forward:
139 PTS, 52 Games, 2.67 Cup Points per Game, 23.8 PPG, 6.5 RPG, 3.9 APG, 1.4 SPG, 0.5 BPG, 23.9 PER, 7.1 WS (Last Year, Injured)
Leonard is back after missing the entire 2021-22 season with ACL issues. The two-time NBA Champion and Finals MVP only played 52 Games but it was the “Claw” of old when healthy.
37. (TIE) Keldon Johnson: San Antonio Spurs, Small Forward
139 PTS, 63 Games, 2.21 Cup Points per Game, 22.0 PPG, 5.0 RPG, 2.9 APG, 0.7 SPG, 0.2 BPG, 15.3 PER, 1.3 WS (Last Year, #105, 100 Points in 75 Games)
Keldon Johnson is now the top player for the Spurs, but that has not translated into many Wins. This is his best year to date, as Johnson elevated his PPG by five.
39. (TIE) Jamal Murray: Denver Nuggets, Point Guard:
137 PTS, 65 Games, 2.11 Cup Points per Game, 20.0 PPG, 4.0 RPG, 6.2 APG, 1.0 SPG, 0.2 BPG, 18.0 PER, 5.1 WS (Last Year, Unranked, Injured)
Murray missed all of last season due to a torn ACL, but he was back this year with an even 20.0 PPG. The Point Guard played a large part in the Nuggets going into the playoffs as the number one seed in the West.
39. (TIE) Franz Wagner: Orlando Magic, Small Forward:
137 PTS, 80 Games, 1.71 Cup Points per Game, 18.6 PPG, 4.1 RPG, 3.5 APG, 1.0 SPG, 0.2 BPG, 15.9 PER, 5.4 WS (Last Year #89, 69 Points in 79 Games)
Orlando was not very good, but there are some young International players to build on, ad Germany’s Franz Wagner is at the core. He enjoyed moderate statistical increases across the board.
41. (TIE) Jordan Poole: Golden State Warriors, Point Guard
135 PTS, 82 Games, 1.65 Cup Points per Game, 20.4 PPG, 2.7 RPG, 4.5 APG, 0.8 SPG, 0.3 BPG, 14.6 PER, 3.2 (Last Year, #30, 152 Points in 76 Games)
The return of Klay Thompson should have reduced Poole’s usage, but this was not the case, as it went up (26.0 to 29.2), as did his PPG by nearly 2 Points, but his overall efficiency dropped to under 15.0. Only a four-year vet, Poole still can add others dimensions to his game.
41 (TIE). Myles Turner: Indiana Pacers, Center
135 PTS, 62 Games, 2.17 Cup Points per Game, 18.0 PPG, 7.5 RPG, 1.4 APG, 0.9 SPG, 0.5 BPG, 20.0 PER, 5.4 WS (Last Year, #111, 50 Points in 42 Games)
Turner just had the best year of his life, putting up career-highs in Points (18.0) and Rebounds per Game (7.5) while finishing fifth in Blocks per Game (2.3).
43. C.J. McCollum: New Orleans Pelicans, Shooting Guard
134 PTS, 75 Games, 1.79 Cup Points per Game, 20.9 PPG, 4.4 RPG, 5.7 APG, 0.9 SPG, 0.5 BPG, 15.6 PER, 4.3 WS (Last Year, #34, 139 Points in 62 Games)
C.J. McCollum concluded his first full year as a Pelican, and did so with his eighth consecutive 20 PPG year. Over 30, McCollum has never been to an All-Star Game and we suspect that he will forever be doomed to a conversation as to was the best player to never be named an All-Star.
44. (TIE) Klay Thompson: Golden State Warriors, Shooting Guard
133 PTS, 69 Games, 1.93 Cup Points per Game, 21.9 PPG, 4.1 RPG, 2.4 APG, 0.7 SPG, 0.4 BPG, 14.7 PER, 3.1 WS (Last Year, #100, 60 Points in 32 Games)
Thompson is the healthiest has been in years, and the “Splash Brother” averaged over 20 Points per Game for the seventh year.
44 (TIE). Desmond Bane: Memphis Grizzlies, Shooting Guard
133 PTS, 56 Games, 2.38 Cup Points per Game, 21.5 PPG, 5.0 RPG, 4.4 APG, 1.0 SPG, 0.4 BPG, 19.1 PER, 5.8 (Last Year, #43, 129 Points in 76 Games)
After a significant improvement in his sophomore year, Bane’s game continued to grow. He posted his first 20-plus PPG, and elevated his PER from 17.6 to 19.1
46. Evan Mobley: Cleveland Cavaliers, Forward
131 PTS, 79 Games, 1.66 Cup Points per Game, 16.2 PPG, 9.0 RPG, 2.8 APG, 0.8 SPG, 1.7 BPG, 17.9 PER, 8.5 WS (Last Year, #71, 86 Points in 69 Games)
Mobley improved significantly this year, helping the Cavaliers make the playoffs. He could be a future All-Star.
47. Kyle Kuzma: Washington Wizards, Power Forward
130 PTS, 64 Games, 2.03 Cup Points per Game, 21.2 PPG, 7.2 RPG, 3.7 APG, 0.6 SPG, 0.5 BPG, 14.3 PER, 0.9 WS (Last Year, #47, 118 Points in 66 Games)
Finishing exactly where he was last year in Cup Standings, Kuzma elevated his PPG by four, although is advanced statistics dropped.
48 (TIE). Jalen Green: Houston Rockets, Shooting Guard
126 PTS, 76 Games, 1.66 Cup Points per Game, 22.1 PPG, 3.7 RPG, 3.7 APG, 1.8 SPG, 0.6 BPG, 14.5 PER, 1.8 WS (Last Year, #103, 58 Points in 67 Games)
Green was an All-Rookie last year, and as a sophomore, the Guard became Houston’s top scorer (22.1 PPG), and had the 18th most Points in the NBA (1,683).
48 (TIE). Fred VanVleet: Toronto Raptors, Point Guard
126 PTS, 69 Games, 1.83 Cup Points per Game, 19.3 PPG, 4.1 RPG, 7.2 APG, 1.8 SPG, 0.6 BPG, 17.0 PER, 6.5 WS (Last Year, #42, 131 Points in 65 Games)
An All-last year, VanVleet came close to last year’s numbers, falling just a Point per Game, while raising his APG by .5. The Raptors’ Guard was third in Steals per Game (1.8) and logged the fifth most Minutes per Game (36.7).
48 (TIE). Bradley Beal: Washington Wizards, Shooting Guard:
126 PTS, 50 Games, 2.52 Cup Points per Game, 23.2 PPG, 3.9 RPG, 5.4 APG, 0.9 SPG, 0.7 BPG, 19.7 PER, 3.4 WS (Last Year, #51, 115 Points in 40 Games)
Beal played more than he did last year, though that was still only 50 Games. His PPG (23.3), was identical to last year, but as he will be 30 next year, it is probable that we have seen his best.
51. Paolo Banchero: Orlando Magic, Power Forward
125 PTS, 72 Games, 1.73 Cup Points per Game, 20.0 PPG, 6.9 RPG, 3.7 APG, 1.2 SPG, 0.4 BPG, 14.9 PER, 2.4 WS (Last Year, Playing at Duke)
Banchero was the first overall pick in the 2022 Draft, and he did not disappoint, averaging an even 20 Points per Game. The Rookie of the Year also took home four Rookie of the Month Awards.
52. Jrue Holiday: Milwaukee Bucks, Point Guard
124 PTS, 67 Games, 1.85 Cup Points per Game, 19.3 PPG, 5.1 RPG, 7.4 APG, 1.2 SPG, 0.4 BPG, 19.2 PER, 6.7 WS (Last Year, #42, 130 Points in 67 Games)
Holiday became an NBA Champion and Olympic Gold Medalist two years ago, and he was named an All-Star for the second time. He finished ninth in Assists per Game (7.4).
53. Jonas Valancuinas: New Orleans Pelicans, Center:
121 PTS, 79 Games, 1.53 Cup Points per Game, 14.1 PPG, 10.2 RPG, 1.8 APG, 0.3 SPG, 0.7 BPG, 19.3 PER, 5.8 WS (Last Year, #18, 179 Points in 74 Games)
Valincuinas was one of the most underappreciated player in the last two seasons, and we argued that he was the best player on his respected teams (Memphis & New Orleans) over that period. His elite period might be over, as his metrics decreased from last year, but he still averaged a double-double.
54. Dejounte Murray: Atlanta Hawks, Shooting Guard
120 PTS, 74 Games, 1.62 Cup Points per Game, 20.5 PPG, 5.3 RPG, 6.1 APG, 1.5 SPG, 0.3 BPG, 17.0 PER, 4.7 (Last Year #15, 202 Points in 68 Games.
Murray gobbled up the Cup Points last year on a mediocre Spurs team, and he was traded to the Hawks, but while he averaged over 20 Points per Game (20.5), which was only a mild drop off, his other numbers dropped significantly: (22.3 to 17.0 PER, 4.4 to 2.1 VORP & 7.3 to 4.7 WS)
54 (TIE). Darius Garland: Cleveland Cavaliers, Point Guard
120 PTS, 69 Games, 1.74 Cup Points per Game, 21.6 PPG, 2.7 RPG, 7.8 APG, 1.2 SPG, 0.1 BPG, 18.8 PER, 7.6 WS (Last Year, #54, 166 Points in 68 Games)
The arrival of Donovan Mitchell meant that Darius Garland did not have to do as much, and settle into more of a supporting role, but his numbers did not change much from last year. He was seventh in Assists per Game (7.8).
56 (TIE). Tyler Herro: Miami Heat, Shooting Guard
117 PTS, 67 Games, 1.75 Cup Points per Game, 20.1 PPG, 5.4 RPG, 4.2 APG, 0.8 SPG, 0.1 BPG, 15.3 PER, 3.5 WS (Last Year, #33, 142 Points in 66 Games)
Last year’s Sixth Man of the Year can’t possibly repeat (he started all 67 Games) but still had a good year, though the luster is off of him somewhat. He just made it to over 20 Points per Game (20.1) and he led the NBA in Free Throw Percentage (.934).
56 (TIE). Josh Giddey: Oklahoma City Thunder, Shooting Guard
117 PTS, 76 Games, 1.72 Cup Points per Game, 16.6 PPG, 7.9 RPG, 6.2 APG, 0.8 SPG, 0.4 BPG, 17.1 PER. 4.0 WS (Last Year, #118, 47 Points in 54 Games)
SGA was the undisputed star of the Thunder, but they had a lot of contributions from their sophomore Center, who grew his PPG from 12.5 to 16.6.
58. Jarrett Allen: Cleveland Cavaliers, Center
111 PTS, 68 Games, 1.65 Cup Points per Game, 14.3 PPG, 9.8 RPG, 1.7 APG, 0.8 SPG, 1.2 BPG, 19.9 PER. 9.5 WS (Last Year, #45, 123 Points in 56 Games)
Allen’s stat line were down from last year, but the Cavaliers are a much more balanced team.
59. Terry Rozier: Charlotte Hornets, Shooting Guard
110 PTS, 63 Games, 1.75 Cup Points per Game, 21.1 PPG, 4.1 RPG, 5.1 APG, 1.2 SPG, 0.3 BPG, 14.7 PER, 1.7 WS (Last Year, #44, 127 Points in 73 Games)
The Hornets were awful this year, and with LaMelo Ball’s injuries, Rozier had to carry a heavier load. It resulted in his highest PPG to date (21.2), but he also had a sub-15 PER after going over 17 the last two years.
60. Brandon Ingram: New Orleans Pelicans, Small Forward
109 PTS, 45 Games, 2.42 Cup Points per Game, 24.7 PPG, 5.5 RPG, 5.8 APG, 0.6 SPG, 0.5 BPG, 19.2 PER, 3.5 WS (Last Year, #34, 139 Points in 55 Games)
Ingram missed a lot of time this year, but his PPG was the highest of his career. With the exception of his rookie year in 2016/17, Ingram has never played more than 62 Games in a year.
61. Jaren Jackson: Memphis Grizzlies, Center
107 PTS, 63 Games, 1.69 Cup Points per Game, 18.6 PPG, 6.8 RPG, 1.0 APG, 1.0 SPG, 3.0 BPG, 21.6 PER, 6.6 WS (Last Year, #51, 100 Points in 78 Games)
Jackson had another good campaign, again increasing his stats across the board. For the first time, the former Michigan State Spartan had a PER over 20. He also led the NBA in Blocks for the second straight year, and enjoyed his first trip to the All-Star Game.
62. (TIE) Alperen Sengun: Houston Rockets, Center
106 PTS, 75 Games, 1.41 Cup Points per Game, 14.8 PPG, 9.0 RPG, 3.9 APG, 0.9 SPG, 0.9 BPG, 19.7 PER, 5.2 WS (Last Year, #206, 18 Points in 72 Games)
This is Sengun’s second year, and the Turkish Center showed off the skills to be a future All-Star.
62. (TIE) Jerami Grant: Portland Trail Blazers, Power Forward
106 PTS, 63 Games, 1.68 Cup Points per Game, 20.5 PPG, 4.5 RPG, 2.4 APG, 0.9 SPG, 0.8 BPG, 16.0 PER, 4.1 WS (Last Year, #72, 85 Points in 47 Games
In Grant’s first year as a Trail Blazer, he accrued his second 20 PPG year in a career-high 35.7 MPG.
64. Jordan Clarkson: Utah Jazz, Shooting Guard
104 PTS, 61 Games, 1.70 Cup Points per Game, 20.8 PPG, 4.0 RPG, 4.4 APG, 0.5 SPG, 0.2 BPG, 14.7 PER, 1.7 WS (Last Year, #80, 78 Points in 79 Games)
The 2021 Sixth Man of the Year started all of his 61 Games with Utah and set personal bests in Points (20.8) and Minutes per Game (32.6).
65. R.J. Barrett: New York Knicks, Shooting Guard
102 PTS, 73 Games, 1.40 Cup Points per Game, 19.6 PPG, 5.0 RPG, 2.8 APG, 0.4 SPG, 0.2 BPG, 12.9 PER, 2.2 WS (Last Year, #47, 117 Points in 70 Games.)
Barrett finished his fourth season closing in on a 20 PPG, but there are still some deficiencies in his game that have to be addressed if he is going to take it to the next level.
66. D’Angelo Russell: Minnesota Timberwolves & Los Angeles Lakers, Point Guard
101 PTS, 71 Games, 1.40 Cup Points per Game, 17.8 PPG, 3.0 RPG, 6.2 APG, 1.0 SPG, 0.4 BPG, 16.3 PER, 5.1 WS (Last Year #63, 95 Points in 65 Games)
An All-Star in 2019 with Brooklyn, Russell was traded during this season from Minnesota to Los Angeles, his original team. His stats this year were nearly identical to last season’s output.
67. (TIE) Nic Claxton: Brooklyn Nets, Center
100 PTS, 76 Games, 1.32 Cup Points per Game, 12.6 PPG, 9.2 RPG, 1.9 APG, 0.9 SPG, 2.5 BPG, 20.8 PER, 9.2 WS (Last Year, #214, 17 Points in 69 Games)
Claxton became a starter in his fourth year, and was a consistent presence on a tumultuous squad. He led the NBA in Field Goal Percentage (.705), 2-Point Field Goal Percentage (.708) and Effective Field Goal Percentage (.705), and was also second in Blocks per Game (2.5).
67. (TIE) Bojan Bogdanovic: Detroit Pistons, Power Forward
100 PTS, 59 Games, 1.38 Cup Points per Game, 21.6 PPG, 3.8 RPG, 2.6 APG, 0.5 SPG, 0.0 BPG, 17.4 PER, 3.5 WS (Last Year, #63, 95 Points in 69 Games)
Bogdanovic is in his first season with the woeful Pistons and with Cade Cunningham going down to injury, he saw more of the rock. The Bosnian had his highest PPG (21.6)
69. Brook Lopez: Milwaukee Bucks, Center
98 PTS, 78 Games, 1.26 Cup Points per Game, 15.9 PPG, 6.7 RPG, 1.3 APG, 0.5 SPG, 2.5 BPG, 18.4 PER, 8.0 WS (Last Year, #297, 6 Points in 79 Games)
Lopez was injured through most of 2021/22 but was healthy throughout this campaign, and he had his best season in years. The 15-year veteran had the best Blocks per Game (2.5) of his career, ending the year third and finishing first and Total Blocks (193). He also averaged more than 30 Minutes per Game, the first time he did so since 2015-16.
70. Spencer Dinwiddie: Dallas Mavericks & Brooklyn Nets, Point Guard
97 PTS, 79 Games, 1.23 Cup Points per Game, 17.4 PPG, 3.4 RPG, 6.5 APG, 0.8 SPG, 0.3 BPG, 16.0 PER, 6.3 WS (Last Year, #83, 76 Points in 79 Games)
For the second year in a row, Dinwiddie was traded during the season, this time from Dallas to Brooklyn in a deal that brought Kyrie Irving. While Dinwiddie is not as good as Kyrie, it was Spencer who made it to the playoffs.
71. Tyrese Maxey: Philadelphia 76ers, Shooting Guard
95 PTS, 60 Games, 1.58 Cup Points per Game, 20.3 PPG, 2.9 RPG, 3.5 APG, 0.8 SPG, 0.1 BPG, 17.0 PER, 5.4 WS (Last Year, #53, 112 Points in 76 Games)
Maxey enjoyed his second full year as a started (third overall), though he did play five minutes less per game, though increased his PPG by two.
72. Anfernee Simons: Portland Trail Blazers, Shooting Guard
97 PTS, 62 Games, 1.56 Cup Points per Game, 21.1 PPG, 2.6 RPG, 4.1 APG, 0.7 SPG, 0.2 BPG, 14.8 PER, 2.5 WS (Last Year, #75, 86 Points in 57 Games)
Simons raised his PPG by nearly four Points, reflective of his increase of Minutes per Game by five. This season could start a lengthy run of 20-plus PPG years.
73. Kevin Porter Jr.: Houston Rockets, Point Guard
93 PTS, 59 Games, 1.58 Cup Points per Game, 19.2 PPG, 4.4 RPG, 6.2 APG, 1.4 SPG, 0.3 BPG, 13.5 PER (Last Year, #96, 62 Points in 61 Games)
Porter is in his fourth year, where he was able to increase his PPG by nearly four. The Rockets are not very good, but Porter could be a future 20 PPG player.
74. Aaron Gordon: Denver Nuggets, Power Forward
89 PTS, 68 Games, 1.31 Cup Points per Game, 16.3 PPG, 6.6 RPG, 3.0 APG, 0.8 SPG, 0.8 BPG, 19.5 PER, 6.8 WS (Last Year, #77, 82 Points in 75 Games)
Gordon showed mild improvement in all facets this year, with his 19.5 PER the best of his career. He also finished in the top 20 in Effective Field Goal Percentage (.603), the first time that Gordon has done so.
75. Buddy Hield: Indiana Pacers, Small Forward
88 PTS, 80 Games, 1.05 Cup Points per Game, 16.8 PPG, 5.0 RPG, 2.8 APG, 1.0 SPG, 0.4 BPG, 15.4 PER, 4.4 WS (Last Year, #72, 85 Points in 81 Games)
Hield completed his first full year in Indiana, and at age 30, the growth of his game is likely over.
76. LaMelo Ball: Charlotte Hornets, Guard
86 PTS, 36 Games, 2.39 Cup Points per Game, 23.3 PPG, 6.4 RPG, 8.4 APG, 1.3 SPG, 0.3 BPG, 17.9 PER, 1.8 WS. (Last Year, #32, 151 Points in 75 Games)
Ball’s Hornets were terrible last year, but a lot of that was because their best player (Ball) was injured through most of it. When he was on the court, he was great, and averaged better numbers than last year, but he was only active in less than half of Charlotte’s contests.
77. Michael Porter: Denver Nuggets, Power Forward:
83 PTS, 62 Games, 1.34 Cup Points per Game, 17.4 PPG, 5.5 RPG, 1.0 APG, 0.6 SPG, 0.5 BPG, 16.8 PER, 4.3 WS (Last Year, #329, 4 Points in 9 Games)
Porter only played nine Games last year, but he appeared in 62 Games and came close to matching his 2020-21 levels.
78. Ivica Zubac: Los Angeles Clippers, Center:
82 PTS, 76 Games, 1.08 Cup Points per Game, 10.8 PPG, 9.9 RPG, 1.0 APG, 0.4 SPG, 1.3 BPG, 16.7 PER, 6.7 WS (Last Year, #91, 65 Points in 76 Games)
Zubac was 0.1 Rebounds per Game away from a double-double average this year, though he was 11th in that stat. He was also eighth in Effective Field Goal Percentage (.634) and tenth in True Shooting Percentage (.661).
79 (TIE). Immanuel Quickly: New York Knicks, Point Guard
81 PTS, 81 Games, 1.00 Cup Points per Game, 14.9 PPG, 4.2 RPG, 3.4 APG, 1.5 SPG, 0.4 BPG, 16.3 PER, 6.7 WS (Last Year, #125, 44 Points in 78 Games)
Quickly’s third season saw his minutes increase from 23.1 to 28.9, and a rise in his Field Goal Percentage (.392 to .448) .
79 (TIE). Chris Paul: Phoenix Suns, Point Guard
81 PTS, 59 Games, 1.37 Cup Points per Game, 13.9 PPG, 4.3 RPG, 8.9 APG, 1.5 SPG, 0.4 BPG, 17.7 PER, 6.2 WS (Last Year, #36, 137 Points in 65 Games)
The decline of Chris Paul seems to be finally here, but his opportunity to win a title is also present. Paul is still a solid Point Guard, concluding the season fourth in Assists per Game.
79 (TIE). Christian Wood: Dallas Mavericks, Center
81 PTS, 67 Games, 1.21 Cup Points per Game, 16.6 PPG, 7.3 RPG, 1.8 APG, 0.8 SPG, 1.0 BPG, 20.6 PER, 4.8 WS (Last Year, #24, 168 Points in 68 Games)
Wood ate up a lot more minutes last year with the Rockets and was the best option on a dismal team. This year he played for a team with higher expectations (though did not make the playoffs) and was used off of the bench mostly. He played five minutes less per Game, though had a higher PER (20.6 from 19.1) than last year.
82. (TIE) Karl-Anthony Towns: Minnesota Timberwolves, Power Forward:
80 PTS, 29 Games, 2.75 Cup Points per Game, 20.8 PPG, 8.1 RPG, 4.8 APG, 0.7 SPG, 0.6 BPG, 18.8 PER, 2.7 WS (Last Year, #7, 240 Points in 74 Games)
KAT took a giant tumble since last year, but that was mostly due to missing a plethora of Games due to calf issues. When he did play, the duo along with the incoming Rudy Gobert saw mixed results, but that could change over a full season if they are both healthy. Bluntly, we are surprised that Towns hasn’t sought an exodus from Minnesota.
82. (Tie) Scottie Barnes: Toronto Raptors, Power Forward
95 PTS, 77 Games, 1.23 Cup Points per Game, 15.3 PPG, 6.6 RPG, 4.8 APG, 1.1 SPG, 0.8 BPG, 15.5 PER, 5.0 WS (Last Year, #63, 95 Points in 74 Games)
Barnes was the Rookie of the Year last season, but the sophomore progression was not there, as his PPG (15.3) remained the exact same, with a drop in PER (16.3 to 15.5).
84. Jalen Williams: Oklahoma City Thunder, Shooting Guard
78 PTS, 75 Games, 1.04 Cup Points per Game, 14.1 PPG, 4.5 RPG, 3.3 APG, 1.4 SPG, 0.5 BPG, 15.6 PER, 5.9 (Last Year, Santa Clara)
The 12th Overall Pick had a great rookie year and was twice named the Rookie of the Month. He was also 11th overall in Steals (103).
85 (TIE). Tobias Harris: Philadelphia 76ers, Power Forward
77 PTS, 74 Games, 1.04 Cup Points per Game, 14.7 PPG, 5.7 RPG, 2.5 APG, 0.9 SPG, 0.5 BPG, 14.8 PER, 5.9 (Last Year, #56, 106 Points in 73 Games)
The Sixers are Harris’ fifth team, but he has never been on a team this good. A solid fourth option for Philadelphia, Harris is beginning his decline.
85. (TIE) Gary Trent: Toronto Raptors, Shooting Guard
77 PTS, 66 Games, 1.15 Cup Points per Game, 17.4 PPG, 2.6 RPG, 1.6 APG, 1.7 SPG, 0.3 BPG, 15.0 PER, 4.5 WS (Last Year, #58, 100 Points in 75 Games)
Trent’s second full year in Toronto saw the Guard post similar stats, though he did have a significant jump in 2-Point Field Goal Percentage (.445 to .493).
87. Clint Capela: Atlanta Hawks, Center
85 PTS, 65 Games, 1.31 Cup Points per Game, 12.0 PPG, 11.0 RPG, 0.9 APG, 0.7 SPG, 1.2 BPG, 22.1 PER, 7.2 WS (Last Year, #72, 85 Points in 74 Games)
Capela averaged a double-double for the sixth season in a row, and his streak for double digits in boards have extended to seven. He was fifth in Rebounds per Game (11.0) and fourth in Field Goal Percentage (.653). Capela also had his seventh year of a 20-plus PER.
88. Wendell Carter: Orlando Magic, Center
74 PTS, 57 Games, 1.30 Cup Points per Game, 15.2 PPG, 8.7 RPG, 2.3 APG, 0.5 SPG, 0.6 BPG, 17.3 PER, 4.6 (Last Year, #62, 98 Points in 62 Games)
Carter did not progress the way Orlando fans would have hoped, as his rebounding metrics decreased from last year.
89 (TIE). Jakob Poeltl: San Antonio Spurs & Toronto Raptors, Center
73 PTS, 72 Games, 1.01 Cup Points per Game, 12.1 PPG, 2.7 RPG, 2.8 APG, 0.9 SPG, 1.2 BPG, 21.0 PER (Last Year, #79, 79 Points in 68 Games)
Poeltl returned to his original team, the Toronto Raptors during the season, where his play efficiency improved (23.1 PER in Toronto from 19.7 in San Antonio). This was the second year in a row that Poeltl had a PER over 20.
89. (TIE) O.G. Anunoby: Toronto Raptors, Small Forward:
73 PTS, 67 Games, 1.09 Cup Points per Game, 16.8 PPG, 5.0 RPG, 2.0 APG, 1.5 SPG, 0.5 BPG, 14.6 PER, 4.7 WS (Last Year, #91, 65 Points in 48 Games)
Anunoby completed his sixth regular season (all with Toronto), with the last three seeing the Forward average more than 15 Points per Game.
91. (TIE) P.J. Washington: Charlotte Hornets, Power Forward
71 PTS, 73 Games, 0.96 Cup Points per Game, 15.7 PPG, 4.9 RPG, 2.4 APG, 1.4 SPG, 0.4 BPG, 12.9 PER, 2.5 WS (Last Year, #206, 18 Points in 66 Games)
Washington started all 73 Games for the Hornets, and had his best PPG (17.5) to date.
91. (TIE) Bobby Portis: Milwaukee Bucks, Power Forward
71 PTS, 70 Games, 1.01 Cup Points per Game, 14.1 PPG, 9.6 RPG, 1.5 APG, 0.9 SPG, 1.1 BPG, 17.8 PER, 5.3 WS (Last Year, #83, 76 Points in 72 Games)
Portis was able to play more at Power Forward with Robin Lopez’ return from injury, but the numbers did not change much from last year despite averaging 2.2 Minutes per Game less. He was 13th in Rebounds per Game this season.
93. (TIE) Kelly Oubre Jr.: Charlotte Hornets, Small Forward
70 PTS, 48 Games, 1.48 Cup Points per Game, 20.3 PPG, 5.2 RPG, 1.1 APG, 1.4 SPG, 0.4 BPG, 14.8 PER, 1.7 WS (Last Year, #100, 60 Points in 76 Games)
Oubre Jr. lost significant time due to injury, but for the first time, he averaged over 20 Points per Game.

70 PTS, 52 Games, 1.35 Cup Points per Game, 13.3 PPG, 9.1 RPG, 2.9 APG, 0.8 SPG, 2.3 BPG, 17.3 PER, 2.7 WS (Last Year, #66, 94 Points in 56 Games)
Nurkic dealt with injuries again this year, and he has not played in at least 60 Games since the 2018-19 Season. This was the first time in four years that he did not break 20 in PER.
95. (TIE) Benedict Mathurin: Indiana Pacers, Small Forward:
68 PTS, 78 Games, 0.87 Cup Points per Game, 16.7 PPG, 4.1 RPG, 1.5 APG, 0.6 SPG, 0.3 BPG, 13.1 PER, 1.8 WS (Last Year, University of Arizona)
Mathurin is the third rookie ranked, and the former Arizona Wildcat had one of the better inaugural seasons in recent Pacers history.
95. (TIE) Russell Westbrook: Los Angeles Lakers & Los Angeles Clippers, Point Guard:
68 PTS, 73 Games, 0.93 Cup Points per Game, 15.9 PPG, 5.8 RPG, 7.5 APG, 1.0 SPG, 0.3 BPG, 16.1 PER, 1.9 WS (Last Year, #38, 136 Points in 65 Games)
The Westbrook as a Laker experiment is officially over, and after more games than good, his contract was bought out. Westbrook remained in the same arena, playing for the Clippers, where he has been more productive, but the All-Star years seem like such a distant memory.
96. Derrick White: Boston Celtics, Shooting Guard:
63 PTS, 82 Games, 0.77 Cup Points per Game, 12.4 PPG, 3.6 RPG, 7.5 APG, 0.7 SPG, 0.9 BPG, 15.4 PER, 7.4 WS (Last Year, #120, 46 Points in 67 Games)

Ivey gives the top 100 four rookies, and a lot to look forward to in Basketball’s future.
99. (TIE) Norman Powell: Los Angeles Clippers, Shooting Guard
59 PTS, 60 Games, 0.98 Cup Points per Game, 17.0 PPG, 2.9 RPG, 1.8 APG, 0.8 SPG, 0.3 BPG, 17.1 PER, 3.5 WS (Last Year, #94, 64 Points in 45 Games)
Powell played mostly off the bench this year (8 Starts in 60 Games), though still had solid scoring statistics.
99 (TIE). Harrison Barnes: Sacramento Kings, Power Forward

Phew!!! That took a while!
Thank you for reading, and look for more content like this in the future.
Days after the Pittsburgh Pirates announced him as a member of their 2023 Hall of Fame Class, former Shortstop, Dick Groat, passed away at the age of 92.
Groat was one of the greatest college athletes ever at Duke University, where he was so good at both basketball and baseball that he is in both of those sports colligate Halls of Fame. Professionally, Groat opted to play baseball…well at first anyway.
Groat signed with the Pirates after his stint with the Blue Devils, and he went straight to the parent club as opposed to going to the minors. Groat was the second runner-up for the National League Rookie of the Year in 1952, but he missed all sports as he was in the military for the next two seasons. The Shortstop returned in 1955, and he proved to be one of the best defensive infielders in the National League, finishing in the top ten in Defensive bWAR seven times. Groat was a decent enough hitter, batting at least .300 three times with the Pirates, including a .325 season in 1960 where he won the Batting Title, but that would not be all he captured that season.
1960 was a dream season for Groat, who also was named the National League MVP, and had career-highs not only in Batting Average but in On Base Percentage (.371). The Shortstop helped lead the Pirates to win the World Series that year, capping off Groat's ultimate year.
After the 1962 Season, Groat was traded to the St. Louis Cardinals, and in his first year there, he had a personal best of 201 Hits with 43 Doubles, which led the NL. He batted .319 that year and was second in MVP voting. After two more good years in St. Louis, he was traded to Philadelphia and would close his career in 1967 with a brief stint with the San Francisco Giants.
Groat would accumulate 2,138 Hits with a .286 lifetime Batting Average, and was an All-Star in five of his seasons, three with Pittsburgh and two with St. Louis.
We here at Notinhalloffame.com would like to extend our condolences to the fans, family and friends of Dick Groat.
