Richaun Holmes (2016-Present)
Holmes is still only 28, but he rightfully deserves his spot on this list. Born in Lockport, Illinois, he was drafted by the Philadelphia 76ers in only the second round. Only 8 games into the season, Holmes has started strong, averaging 15.0 points a game, 9.9 total rebounds and has a player efficiency rating that is way above average. One to keep an eye on.
