Ranking the 30 best players of the 2019-20 NBA G League season

With the NBA G League season likely to be canceled soon, Rookie Wire took a look at the best players to suit up this year.

5. Kyle Guy, Stockton Kings

The sharpshooter from Virginia lived up to expectations during his rookie campaign. Guy averaged 21.5 points and 4.8 assists in 37 games, while he shot 40% from 3-point range. He closed out the year third in total 3-pointers and drained a season-high eight triples on Nov. 30 en route to a 42-point performance.

4. Frank Mason, Wisconsin Herd

Mason finished as the G League scoring leader with an average of 26.4 points. He just qualified for our rankings after logging 23 appearances with the Herd but completed his season by scoring 30 points in five of his last six games, including a season-high 44 points on Feb. 19.

3. Johnathan Motley, Agua Caliente Clippers

Motley averaged 24 points, 8.1 rebounds and 3.2 assists in 26 games played with the Clippers. Motley has split his time between the G League and NBA on his two-way contract and had a hot run in February after scoring at least 30 points in five straight games with the AC Clippers. Motley ended his season on a high note after scoring 30 points last Tuesday.

2. B.J. Johnson, Lakeland Magic

The two-way forward of the Orlando Magic has had a tremendous season in the G League. Johnson averaged 22.9 points, 6.4 rebounds, 2.1 assists and 2.1 steals in 28 games played. He finished fourth in scoring average after converting on 42.3% from 3-point range with the Magic.

1. Marial Shayok, Delaware Blue Coats

Shayok took home the top spot after a remarkable rookie campaign in the G League. The 76ers two-way rookie averaged 23 points, 5.8 rebounds and 3.8 assists in 35 games played. He shot 45.4% from the field and established himself as perhaps the top scorer in the league, finishing second in total points. He ultimately earned top honors after having a larger body of work over the likes of Johnson, Motley and Mason.
