Regardless of their playing position, there are many amazing players in the NBA at this moment. Even among them, the guard position is full of breathtaking talents around the league.
Speaking of such talents, one cannot leave out Luka Doncic, Ja Morant, and Trae Young. The three superstars are still pretty young but have already started to gather huge attention from fans all around the globe.
Doncic is the cornerstone of the Dallas Mavericks and he is one day expected to become one of the faces of the league. He certainly has the talent for it. On top of that, he has an incredibly likable personality, which helps him a lot.
Next up is Trae Young, who entered the league alongside Luka and has already established himself as one of the most prolific scorers of this generation. With Young at the helm, the Atlanta Hawks went to the Eastern Conference Finals last season and will hope to win an NBA Championship in the future.
Last but not least is Memphis Grizzlies’ Ja Morant. Morant is without a doubt the most athletic out of the three players and he is not shy in showing off his bounce during games. Apart from that, Morant has a great ability to score at will and make life hard for opponents.
But what if fans were asked to rank these players from worst to best? Well, Twitter account “Hoop Central” had this idea recently.

How they playing this year, or who is the best player? Because those are two different things.
This season:
Ja, Trae, Luka
Best player:
Luka, Ja, Trae or Luka, Trae, Ja
I could see either way.

If I put Trae last will I be called a hater 😬
Luka
Ja
Trae
Luka has been kind of iffy for parts of this seasons though, so if you were to rank either of them ahead of him I wouldn’t be mad about it.

Anyone who doesn't put luka at #1 doesn't know shit about basketball that's my answer
— Todd Bowles puts me in pain (@Cowrex) January 17, 2022
Tough choice between Luka and Trae at #2 but if you have anyone other than Ja at one you’re wrong

Considering this season, Luka has been sidelined with injury and health & safety protocols, it seems like many have forgotten how good of a player he is. Moreover, despite not playing as many games as the other two stars, Doncic is still making sure that the Mavs are in the playoffs race.
At the end of the day, there will never be a definitive answer for this debate. Each fan will have their own reasons for putting either of the players above one another. Once the playoffs start, it will be much easier to rank the players though.
