7. Enes Kanter

Kanter has made a name for himself in only one-and-a-half seasons with the Thunder. The Turkish big man came over via trade during February of 2015, immediately making a huge impact on the team.

In his first 26 appearances with the Thunder, Kanter averaged almost 19 points and 11 rebounds a game-all with KD out with his foot injury. This season, with Durant and Ibaka back in the starting lineup, Kanter came off the bench and secured the 11th best PER in the league.

This season will be the 24-year old’s opportunity to show Oklahoma City and the rest of the league that he is a perennial all-star. His stats in the past prove that he can be just that; now it’s up to him to evolve into a top-20 NBA player.
