NBA Top 50 players for 2022-23: Klay Thompson, Draymond Green, Marcus Smart just make cut

21 September 2022

The Warriors land three players in the first ten on our Top 50, while other young rising stars crack the list for the first time while trying to take a bigger step.

We are less than a month away from the start of the 2022-23 NBA season and with that, the Locked On Podcast Network is rolling out a unique NBA Top 50 players list for 2022-23 this week.

Locked On teamed up with bookmaker BetOnline to gauge and rank the top 50 NBA players based on how they affect the spread or betting line for their team, if they weren’t playing.

BetOnline took the 50 top players who most move those lines. So, they took the top 50 players who would move the lines, and ranked them out. We’ll roll them out throughout the week on the Locked On NBA podcast, as our local experts around the country chime in about a ranking for each player on the list that plays for the team they cover.

Checkout the first episode of the Locked On NBA Top 50 on the Locked On NBA podcast feed wherever you get your podcasts, or on Locked On NBA’s YouTube channel for video!

Subscribe to Locked On NBA on YouTube or wherever you get your podcasts to see how the list plays out the rest of the week.

50. Tyrese Haliburton, G, Indiana Pacers Spread value: 1.5 points

2021-22 stats: 17.2 points, 4.5 rebounds, 2.2 assists, 46.6% FG%

Locked On Warriors host Cyrus Saatsaz: “Andrew Wiggins was a starter last year for the Western Conference All-Star team. Maybe it wasn’t a monster season in averages, but he was incredible in the playoffs and was instrumental and helping the Warriors to a Finals win on both ends of the floor. Expect more great things from him in a contract season coming up.”

43. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, G, Oklahoma City Thunder
