Jalen Brunson / Dallas

Sam Navarro-USA TODAY Sports
A throwback point guard who may not be an athletic freak, but who can still get to his spots by putting his shoulder down and moving foes. Knows how to run an offense and can get his own buckets when need be.

Ricky Rubio / Cleveland

Trevor Ruszkowski-USA TODAY Sports
A torn ACL at his age and with the mileage he has could be cause for concern, but if he can prove to teams he’ll be healthy at some point next season, he’ll be a sought-after point guard thanks to his playmaking abilities.

Tyus Jones / Memphis

Justin Ford-USA TODAY Sports
An underrated point guard who’s mostly been a backup throughout his career. However, if his play this year is any indication, he’s ready for a bigger role soon, as his scoring and passing are more than solid.

Gary Payton II / Golden State

Cut from his father’s cloth defensively, and having to guard Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson and Jordan Poole in practice probably hasn’t hurt, either. Top-notch point guard defender with a raw, though improved, offensive game.
