6) C.J. McCollum, Portland Trail Blazers

C.J. McCollum had a breakout season for the Portland Trail Blazers in 2016 and averaged a career-high 20.8 points per game. The former top-10 pick from tiny Lehigh is making a name for himself as a premiere shooting guard in the NBA.

Last season was McCollum’s first time being a full-time starter, by starting in all 80 games he played in. He and teammate point guard Damian Lillard are forming a formidable 1-2 scoring punch in the backcourt for the Trail Blazers.

As a result of his strong performance throughout the season, McCollum was named the NBA Most Improved Player in the league for 2016. He will look to build on that to prove last season was not a fluke.
