1 Bold Prediction for Top 20 NBA Stars Heading into 2015-16

Evaluating the cream of the NBA's current crop is much easier once the real games begin. Few (if any) can tell the future, but that speculative aspect is what makes it fun, right?

We could argue for days on end who belongs in, say, the league's top 20, precisely because there is no one "right" answer. That didn't stop me from coming up with my own 20-man list. There wasn't room for all the biggest names, so naturally, there will be some honorary omissions.

Kobe Bryant is still a superstar in name but hasn't been healthy enough to be a top-20 guy since prior to his Achilles injury in 2013. Dwight Howard, just shy of 30, has had his own run with age and injuries in recent years and is going to miss a chunk of games as part of the Houston Rockets' maintenance plan. Klay Thompson was an All-NBA performer but tailed off as the Golden State Warriors seized control of the 2015 Finals.

Pick at the list all you like, but for the 20 who made the cut, listed here in alphabetical order, let's double down with 2015-16 season predictions for the best and brightest the NBA has to offer.
