NBA’s best, seventh-best wings are Boston Celtics in new Bleacher Report assessment

Only the Clippers with Paul George and Kawhi Leonard have comparable star power on the wing, and only a few other ball clubs (the Nets, Magic, Raptors, and Suns) have multiple star-level wings at all.

While there may still be a debate over whether the pair can play together well enough to win on the league’s biggest stage in at least the eyes of a few, when it comes to the pecking order of wing players in the NBA next season, Boston Celtics All-NBA forwards Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown have been rated fairly high by a new Bleacher Report assessment of the 30 best wings in the league, coming in at Nos. 1 and 7 respectively.

Only the Los Angeles Clippers with Paul George (sixth overall) and Kawhi Leonard (fifth overall) have comparable star power on the wing, and only a few other ball clubs (the Brooklyn Nets, Orlando Magic, Toronto Raptors, and Phoenix Suns) have multiple star-level wings at all.

Let’s take a look at B/R’s assessments of Tatum and Brown.
