We've seen these before with all time greats, but here is one for current players. This would be a team playing today against other teams that are built, and everyone is 100% healthy. No need to pick specific positions, just your 5 starters. You can spend less than $15, but not over. You must spend at least $1 for each starter - no YMCA players on the court for free.

$6

LeBron James
Kevin Durant

$5

Steph Curry
Anthony Davis
Kawhi Leonard
James Harden
Russell Westbrook

$4

Giannis Antetokounmpo
Kyrie Irving
Chris Paul
Demarcus Cousins
Joel Embiid

$3

Jimmy Butler
Karl-Anthony Towns
Klay Thompson
Gordon Hayward
Paul George
Rudy Gobert
John Wall
Damian Lillard
LaMarcus Aldridge
Kevin Love
Draymond Green
Klay Thompson
Blake Griffin

$2

Paul Millsap
Kristaps Porzingis
Ben Simmons
Nikola Jokic
Andre Drummond
Kyle Lowry
Victor Oladipo
Kemba Walker
Jrue Holiday
DeMar DeRozan
DeAndre Jordan
Bradley Beal
Donovan Mitchell
Goran Dragic
Al Horford


$1

The field


If you think someone is grossly over/under valued, feel free to discuss. If I have some major oversight, I'll add him, but otherwise assume any current player not listed is $1.

I'll take:

LeBron - $6

Robert Covington - $1
Capela - $1

ETA - lineup wise, I'd go LeBron, Covington, Klay, Giannis, Capela

You don't get all of them. You've got to pick 3.

Eh, I think the difference between the "ranked" players above and the field make it worth having another superstar or two. It's all relative.

Yeah those suck because they lock in on positional rankings and leave Hakeem for like $1. It's ridiculous.
