James Harden.

Been a few years since he was first nba all star
And he's no longer considered or treated like a superstar.

Did I win?

You don’t consider Tatum a superstar yet?

By "superstar" I mean All-NBA First Team within the last few years. I was thinking about fit and who I'd actually like to see that would support the roster as currently constructed, with FVV and Brooks locked in as major rotation members and Green, Sengun looking highly likely to start.

For me, I think I'd go with Jaren Jackson Jr. if he were somehow available. Still young and getting better, DPOY, decent shooter who can play the 4 or 5, absolutely perfect pairing with Sengun. There's some overlap with Jabari, who you would hope eventually maxes out as something like JJJ with a little shotblocking/rim protection traded out for better 3P shooting, but JJJ is already what we only hope Jabari will become.

We'd still be hoping for a breakout offensive engine type of player, whether that's Green or Sengun, and I'd still be concerned about Brooks' chucker tendencies, but the defense would already be getting into "championship contender" range.
