- Al Jefferson- Minnesota Timberwolves: This guy has been the face of the franchise ever since the Garnett trade took effect. He has been scoring, rebounding, passing, everything that a true center needs to be dominant in the NBA. Al has done it all, and should be at least a reserve in this upcoming year's All-Star game. To me, he is the most under-Rated player in the NBA, and is one of the best centers in the western conference.
- Rajon Rondo- Boston Celtics: The only reason in my eyes why this man is Under-Rated, is because of the fact that he has 3 superstars being the poster-boys for this team. This kid has been the catalyst as of late for the Celtics, and is on of the key reasons why the Boston Celtics are a whopping 27-2! He has always been there for KG, Paul Pierce, and Ray Allen. He is the leader, hands down.
- Devin Harris- New Jersey Nets: The face of the Nets right now. I love Vince Carter, but Devin has done so much more this year for them. He averages 24.4 points a game, 3.3 rebounds, and 6.7 assists. That's amazing. He has not gotten enough respect from the league, but is beginning to turn heads. He has to make the All-Star team this year or I will personally ban watching it all together. He is one of the best point guards in the NBA.
- Andres Biendrins-Golden State Warriors: Mr. Rebound. He averages almost 20 rebounds a game and is the man behind the defense of the Warriors. Excellent defense, great offense, a true post player.
- Al Horford-Atlanta Hawks: The runner-up rookie of the year last year is the defense for the Hawks, and in my eyes will become one of the most dominant big men in the league for years to come.
- Danny Granger- Indiana Pacers: He is the Pacers. That's it. He is the offense, he is the defense. He is everything for the pacers. He is a DEFINITE for the All-Star team, the only downside is that he is on a bad team. if he was on a better team, he would be in the All-Star game every year.
- LaMarcus Aldridge-Portland Trailblazers: Remember him???? He was the guy the Blazers relied on in the post last season after the surgery that put highly-anticipated Greg Oden on the sidelines. He is a rebounder and he was born to be such a player.I have a lot of respect for this guy and he certainly in legit.

Under-Rated Players
We all know the superstars in the NBA: Kobe, LeBron, D-Wade, that sort of thing. However, there are those that don't receive nearly as much recognition and publicity that I think that they rightfully deserve. Here are some of my picks for the most Under-Rated players in the NBA:
