#2 Joel Embiid
Joel Embiid: the Cameroonian carries the skill, athleticism and body frame to end his career as one of the greatest bigs to ever play basketball. Only if JoJo could steer clear of unnecessary injuries and manage to remain fit throughout the 82 games, he's capable of doing serious damage to the opposition in every game he plays.
His numbers from the past season were on par with the reigning MVP, but despite the stat-sheets screaming of his impressive feats, he didn't end up in the final discussion for the award. Embiid averaged a monstrous 27.5 points and 13.6 rebounds per game last year, but was not as effective in making his teammates better as Giannis was.
He averaged almost six assists per game - the same as Kemba Walker, a legitimate point-guard - which is very impressive for an athlete his size. The final leap Embiid must overcome which separates him from glory, is playing the facilitator role as well, which could result in collective 76ers success and hopefully more individual accomplishments.
