Ranking 76ers’ Tobias Harris and the top 30 NBA small forwards
24. player. 27. . SF. New York Knicks. Josh Hart
Josh Hart’s sudden decline in 3-point volume has been mildly puzzling, but he figures to provide the Knicks with plenty of production around the margins. Hart can create off of drives, rebound better than just about any 6-foot-4 player in the NBA, and guard multiple positions on the perimeter.
73. . SF. Denver Nuggets. Bruce Brown Jr.. 23. player
The ultimate Swiss Army Knife role player, Bruce Brown deserves more credit than he often gets. He just ticks every box: playmaking instincts, a bankable 3-point shot, the ability to finish inside. He doesn’t dominate the ball, but instead influences winning with lightning-quick processing speeds and an unselfish demeanor. Plus, he’s a brick wall defensively.
22. player. 125. . SF. Atlanta Hawks. De'Andre Hunter
Health has been the primary factor holding De’Andre Hunter back to this point in his career. The talent is fairly obvious — the ideal third or fourth option for a team driven by ball-dominant guards like Atlanta. Hunter can guard the opposition’s best player on one end, then hit 3s, attack in straight-line drive, and even freestyle to create his own buckets occasionally on the other end.
