Besides Scottie, Who Has the Highest Chance of Making an All-Star Game Appearance in the Next 5 Years?

[SFour]

BI has a slim chance since he was already an All-Star once.

JaKobe and Gradey have a shot, if we get lucky with their development.

Realistically, I'd probably give the highest odds to whoever we draft this year with our first pick.

Gradey would have to play like Tyler Herro, which is his best case scenario.....took Herro four 20+ ppg seasons before he got voted in for allstar.

It’s quite clearly Ingram, even though I don’t think it will happen.

This year’s pick may have a better chance, but that’s putting a lot of pressure on a player that hasn’t even been drafted yet.

Here’s one… how would you set the over/under on total All-Star appearances by Toronto Raptors in the next five years?

I feel like 3.5 is reasonable as a number that would have roughly equal numbers of people on each side. Then again, on this board you could probably set it at 0.5 or 10.5 and still have even numbers.

[PhilBlackson]

BI and if he’s healthy he will be again.

[Ado05]

Cooper Flagg

[YogurtProducer]

Just saying, anyone saying Chomche is out of their mind if they are serious

[agkagk]

Quickley is going to get a tone of easy buckets.

Tyler maxey -ish

Ironically, Tyler maxey didn’t make the all star team and is the 4th leading scorer.


Hmm…. Maybe the guard position is too deep?

I’ll go rj, he’s a giant shooting guard but the media mistakes him for a small forward.

Simply from process of elimination is jakob. Its easier as a center than as a forward (i now they are not "Cs" in the all-star voting, but practillly it still exist)

This Season, Jakob has shown he can score a lot if needed and has a career year. So if we become a winning team, his numbers will be great.

BI or RJ are my bets if Position doesnt matter.

My guy, is Jakob your son or something?

Jakob has next to no ability to ever make an ASG. If he is on a good team he is like your 5th best player. No chance he makes it.

Poeltl... is not going to be an All-Star. He's doing quite well for us, but like, we're also going to see his scoring go down going forward. He's experiencing a career-high in shooting and scoring volume right now, but that'll change as soon as we're healthy and Ingram is playing, no question. And otherwise, he's a pretty standard, non-AS big.

I remember very well people claiming guys like sengun, zubac and so forth are all-star level players.

Poeltl already has proven he can play at that level. I know he plays a boring style of Basketball, which is why he is underrated. And i specifily said it is easier for a C than as a forward.

I mean, you're talking about a career 9/7 guy; it isn't surprising that he doesn't get a lot of publicity. He was a 13/9 guy after the trade, 11/8.5 last year. This season, he's been about 14/10 on career-high shooting volume and minutes. But he's a career 14/11 PER36 guy, so none of that is super surprising. He fouls a fair bit, he isn't an elite rim protector but he's a pretty good overall team player. He's a solid vet at the end of his 20s. He knows where to be on the court and doesn't have an ego about doing the little things. Good sense of timing and all that. He isn't boring, he just isn't a focal guy. He's a very solid rotational big for 25-30 mpg. If he could hit even a 17-footer, then he'd be considerably more valuable, but he doesn't have that kind of range (and certainly not 3pt range), so his ability to space isn't maximal. But we have seen guys of his sort a fair bit over the years, and they don't often get a lot of love for the ASG.

[Tripod]

Lol...I only read his 1st line and thought "how thru the process of elimination did he get to JaKobe Walter...and not BI 1st"

Then read the rest....in no way did I think Yak as an all star. Very solid, good C...but don't see that in his future.

[ontnut]

Ingram is the obvious answer.
RJ puts up good numbers, if he hits more 3's and we're a winning team, he'll get votes.
Gradey won't have enough peripheral stats (Reb + Ast, Stocks) to get the eye popping numbers needed for an AS.
Garland made an ASG with 22/3/7 on 49/43/87. IQ can make it if he ups his efficiency as he's more than capable of being a 20/5/7 type guy. Again, we'd need to be a top team in the East for him to get consideration, like Garland did.
I don't see Jakobe getting there.
Flagg will get some consideration by year 3.

Might be a hot take, but I think a guy like Chomche has a better chance of making it than an established low/mid ceiling vet like Poeltl. It maybe be a 0.1% chance, but Poeltl is basically 0.0% chance.
