    So from this list...who will be on all-nba teams 5 years from now and who will be irrelevant or out of the NBA? A fun game to play.

    I think none of those 10 rookies will be irrelevant 5 years from now. Last year's draft is one of the best ones of last two decades. Top 5 all time for sure. There's no LeBron, Durant or Jordan, but depth of draft is insane.

    All-NBA? Probably Luka. If Ayton corrects his defense, he will be up there too. Out of other 8, Trae Young probably has the best shot at it. He is a terrific passer.

    Fun fact Sam Bowie played more games than Jordan in their first two years combined.

    Blazers have had horrible injury luck of franchise players... Walton, Bowie, Roy, Sabonis, and Oden.
