Ranking the Top 10 Point Guards in the NBA

Having a great point guard is imperative to any basketball team’s success. They have the ball in their hands every play and are tasked with generating offense for themselves and their teammates. Fortunately, the position is flush with talent across the league. It’s a collection of young talent on the rise and a few all-time greats who can still dominate. Narrowing down the list to 10 is a difficult task. A few premier players had to be left off. Here are the top 10 point guards in the NBA heading into the 2024-25 season:

10. De’Aaron Fox — Sacramento Kings

De’Aaron Fox’s career development has been impressive to watch. He’s always shown an ability to get to the basket with force. Fox is one of the fastest players end-to-end in the league and can blow by defenders as if they aren’t even there. Naturally, teams started to defend him a certain way, and that’s when Fox developed a lethal mid-range game. Then, last season, he suddenly emerged as a high-volume three-point shooter posting career highs in makes and percentage. He also led the league in steals in ’24. What’s next? Is the 6-foot-3 Fox going to become a premier shot-blocker? At this point, we wouldn’t even be surprised.
