So many options and more European players arguably deserve recognition, but the Top 10 can only fit so much

Plenty of stars coming in from Europe and highlighting the growing international presence in the NBA, they spread across the league to constantly increase difficulty in any kind of ranking lists.

The continent’s Big Three stretching from Nikola Jokic and Giannis Antetokounmpo to Luka Doncic, somewhat unconventionally linked to the term Big Three, anyway became unstable. Domantas Sabonis and Lauri Markkanen demanded more attention over the 2022-23 season.

Paolo Banchero is likely to soon emerge as an additional threat. On a possibly related note, let’s not start just yet with Victor Wembanyama, widely expected to be selected first overall in the 2023 draft and a likely candidate for future Top 10 lists.

With the Playoffs in full swing, Eurohoops brings back the Top 10 European players ranking according to player status combined with the W-L tally of respective teams. Scrolling down will present the selections.
