klay thompson's interview about NYC scaffolding is all the proof anyone needs here
Travis Outlaw: Oh man. That feels great. To have a bobblehead of me is just terrific.

This year Lance has been very likable. The air guitar. The workout videos.

Re: Most Like-able NBA players
Steven Adams is the most likeable NBA player imo. Good sportsmanship, great sense of humour and a hard worker on the court.
Dirk Nowitzki and Giannis Antetokounmpo are also up there. Dirk is a class act with a sense of humour and Giannis' ability to combine incredible passion with humility is admirable.

It wasn't their friend or relative. And a lot of people are still just really insensitive about these issues, specially when it concerns people/players they admire.
Besides, can't really understand how he's that likeable anyway. Sure, I felt bad for him in 2012. Like him? No way.
One name nobody has thrown around I believe: Nick Collison.
Dirk is just the most wholesome guy and Luka seems like a perfect replacement in that sense. 10 years from now Zhaire Wade and Bron Jr will be on the sideline mocking Luka's fat arms and then he'll beat the crap out of them and get the 2029 title to Dallas.

Every time I see Lance I can't but help but be reminded hes the guy that shoved his girl down a flight of stairs. He does seem far more level headed these days.

Yeah, Doncic is just having so much fun out there. It's hard not to like him.
If not, Giannis for me also.

I left West off my list because of how high-strung he was ... but you're right. He internalized that, and I think those who deal with him probably like him a lot.
Doc Rivers is very likeable as a coach, but I don't know how he was in his playing days. I know he suffered some pretty bad racism for marrying a white woman (e.g. house torched killing his pets), so I wouldn't be surprised if he had an edge.

Re: Most Like-able NBA players
There is a good reason why a lot of them are euro/oversea players in this list, they tend to adopt their drafting/developing franchises wholeheartedly and tie to them, unlike US players who feel them as stop-gap to LA/NY show.

People (Clippers fans, Pistons fans) may hate his game, but personality-wise there is no other dude in the NBA i like more. Avery Bradley, humble person with a big heart.

Re: Most Like-able NBA players
Really dislike Rose for his objectifying of women and participation in gangbangs.
The way he carried himself through all of that “We Men” was sickening.
I never thought he was a rapist and he was found not guilty, this is more about the things he admitted to and the way he communicated throughout.

Big honey.
How can you not like that guy? He's just a chubster lovable clown and the people's champ.
He also is great with the kids (at least according to the videos that the Nuggets put out).
