3. Will Smith

It’s important to point out here that I’m talking about the Will Smith character from The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air — the guy that lit up the state of California at Bel-Air Academy.

There are some red flags that should jump out at you if you study Smith’s film from his time at Bel-Air Academy. For starters, it looks like he’s playing on a court the size of a driveway. He’s also mostly playing against guys who look like they’ve never seen a basketball before.

But I still think Smith would make a good pro. He has exceptional size, jaw-dropping athleticism, a fantastic feel for the game, and the moment’s never too big for him. He has a tendency to get a little fancier than he needs to, but it works for him so whatever.

The most impressive part about Smith is his ability to carry his team to win after win despite playing with arguably the worst supporting cast in fictional basketball history. It’s truly a spectacle.
