As the highest palace in the world basketball world, the NBA has never lacked talented stars, but to truly dominate the NBA, in addition to having top physical talents, it also requires outstanding football business, personal abilities and leadership temperament. Looking at the league today, in the NBA five years later, these five people will definitely dominate the league!

1.Wenban Yama

As the No. 1 pick in 2023, Wenban Yama has a historically level physical talent and has attracted much attention since entering the league. In the first two seasons of his career, Wenban Yama has already gained a place in the league and has become the hottest supernova. This season, Wenban Yama has only played 46 games for the Spurs due to blood clots, averaging 33.2 minutes per game, scoring 24.3 points, 11 rebounds, 3.7 assists, 1.1 steals, 3.8 blocks, with a shooting percentage of 47.6%, three-point shooting percentage of 35.2%, and free throw shooting percentage of 83.6%. The offensive and defensive performance has further transformed and upgraded, and was crowned the league block king for two consecutive seasons. If it weren't for the lack of plays, Wenban Yama would have been a strong contender in the best lineup. For the 21-year-old Wenban Yama, it may take less than 5 years to become another super insider in the dominant league!

2.Edwards

Edwards has improved every season since entering the league, and he has all the elements to become a superstar. After leading the team successfully into the Western Conference Finals last season, Edwards' ability to lead the team this season is still excellent and has a strong leadership temperament. In this year's playoffs, Edwards led the Timberwolves to easily eliminate the Lakers who had James and Doncic 4-1, and successfully advanced to the second round of the playoffs. So far in the playoffs, Edwards averaged 26.2 points, 9.3 rebounds, 5.5 assists, 1.5 steals and 0.5 blocks per game, and the offense and defense ends are very balanced. For 23-year-old Edwards, the future is destined to be extremely bright!

3.Doncic

Since entering the league, Doncic has been trained as a future star player. In the first six seasons of his career, Doncic has been selected for the All-Stars and the Best Team of the Season for five consecutive seasons, and the upward momentum is very strong. Although Doncic has suffered from injuries this season and has encountered team transition storm, he still has excellent data per game of 28.2 points, 8.2 rebounds, 7.7 assists and 1.8 steals, with a shooting percentage of 45% and a three-point shooting percentage of 36.8%. For the 26-year-old Doncic, he is already the strongest ball-holding core in active service. As long as the Lakers strengthen the weak inside line during the offseason, Doncic will inevitably lead the team to achieve more dazzling results. And in the next five years, Doncic will still be at his peak, and the only thing that can stop him is injury!

4. Cunningham

As the No. 1 pick in 2021, Cunningham showed good strength and upward trend. After three seasons of dormant, Cunningham ushered in a big explosion and performed extremely well this season. During the regular season, Cunningham was able to deliver 26.1 points, 6.1 rebounds, 9.1 assists, 1 steal, and 0.8 blocks per game. Easily switching between organization and offense has become the real cornerstone of the Pistons' team building. Under the leadership of Cunningham, the Pistons have also returned to the playoff stage this season after many years. Although it ended in the first round, Cunningham's personal strength and leadership temperament are worthy of recognition. For 23-year-old Cunningham, he still has a lot of room for improvement in the future.

5.Alexander

It is no exaggeration to say that Alexander has begun to rule the alliance now, and his era may have come. This season's regular season, Alexander played 76 games for the Thunder, averaging 32.7 points, 5 rebounds, 6.4 assists, 1.7 steals and 1 block per game. He shot 51.9% from the field, 37.5% from three-point shooting percentage, 89.8% from free throws, and has a strong dominance on both offense and defense. Under the leadership of Alexander, the Thunder have been ahead of the league this season, achieving the best record of 68 wins and 14 losses, showing strong dominance. Alexander not only won his first scoring title, but also almost locked in the regular season MVP this season. Whether it is personal strength or team-leading performance, the 26-year-old Alexander is already the best player in the league!

Who do you think is most likely to rule the alliance in 5 years?
