Andrew Wiggin's burner account
If someone completely new to the sport wanted to know about the history of the league (inception to today's game) and you could only explain to them by listing 15 players for them to research, who would they be? Again this isn't necessarily a list of all-time greats or 15 best players of all time, but transcendent talents that you would want them to know about and how they affected the game. Who would be on your list?
Mine would be (in no particular order):
Michael Jordan
Lebron James
Kareem Abdul-Jabbar
Wilt Chamberlain
Bill Russell
Larry Bird
Magic Johnson
Oscar Robertson
Jerry West
Julius Erving
Shaquille O'Neal
Kobe Bryant
Tim Duncan
Steph Curry
Kevin Durant
Just missed: Hakeem Olajuwon, Charles Barkley, Dirk Nowitzki, John Stockton, George Mikan and Bob Pettit
