Do you have a favorite player? Is your favorite player on your favorite team?

Hello,

Been thinking about this lately. I don't necessarily have a favorite player. I like watching PG13, Lebron, Kawhi, Giannis, Harden, Durant when he was on OKC, Wade in his prime, Dirk in his prime, Doncic, Trae, and a few others.

But none of these guys are my favorite player, and that includes Harden even though he plays for my favorite/hometown team. What about you guys? Does your favorite player play on your favorite team? Do you even have one single favorite player? Please discuss.

Yes I have a favorite player. No I don't have a favorite team (aka owner).

Yes - Gary Harris. The Nuggets aren't my favorite team but I root for them except for when they're playing the Blazers.

I'd love to see Jokic play under Pop on the Spurs.

Steph is my boy.

Dirk & Manu were my favorite players at one time. But, I didn't really have a team (Sonics).

Ray Allen, Gary Payton, & Shawn Kemp we're my favorite Sonics.

Btw If you play for OKC, your my least favorite player! :wink:

Heat, Alonzo Mourning, someone needs to invent a time machine and bring back Prime Mourning.

As a kid: KG / Iverson / VC / Timmy / Kobe / Shaq
Now: Lebron / Curry / KD / Kawhi

Does JR count as being on the Cavs?

Yes. It's been Curry since 2016.

No he doesn't play on my favorite team.

90's= Mitch Richmond
00's= Shareef Abdur-Rahim/Kris Humphries
2010's= Humphries/Jokic

Humphries played on the C's for one year, so yes, my favorite player was on my favorite team for one year.

These days I am not so sure. Marcus Smart and Jaylen Brown come the closest. Back in the day though I was a huge Hakeem Olajuwon fan.

Jokic, so not on my team. Love KAT and Rose very much too tho, so there are 2 guys on my team in top 3. Jokic just brings me joy

My favorite basketball player of all time is Ray Allen aka Sugar Ray aka Jesus Shuttlesworth. He never played for my team but always torched my team when he was on the Sonics and Celtics.

Current favorite player: Kawhi

Not anymore, every time I’ve had one the Bulls have either traded them or given them a reason to leave

My favourite player has to be on the Bulls roster, once they’re gone they’re replaced by next favourite Bull

Focusing on post dynasty days here are the list of players that were my favourites until they were traded or let go, sadly none finished or likely will finish their career as Bulls other than the sad final season of Pippens career

Kukoc
Artest
Crawford
Pippen part 2
Gordon
Nocioni
Tyrus Thomas
James Johnson
Boozer
Noah
Rose
Gibson
Butler
Mirotic

I find the current roster so unlikeable I couldn’t even pick a player as my favourite. I don’t hate any of them, but would be just fine with replacing the lot
