NBA players aren’t not even remotely close to the best athletes in the world.
Most people think basketball players are big leapers when in reality the average standing vert in basketball is below 30 inches. That’s below every NFL position group outside of OL.
This doesn’t even bring up the straight line speed and strength metrics that most NBA players completely lack.
The NBA is a body type league with skills that are taught. It is not an “athletic” league.
