The NBA is such an entertaining league because of its stars, but all that talent is only enhanced by the fact that basketball superstardom isn’t confined by the limits of one’s age. Whether you’re a 19-year-old rookie or a 38-year-old fading talent, the NBA is built by its biggest names, highest risers and best shot-makers.

But with so much talent at so many different ages, it can be hard to keep track of how much room for growth certain players have. Most of the all-time greats have peaked in the 27-30 range, but as the NBA continually gets younger, we’re always looking to the younger 20s for the next superstar.

In the interest of sorting it all out, it’s time to take a look at the young and the old, and rank each and every player at each and every age in the NBA. Since the league continues to get younger, we started this series at the bottom and have worked out way up (after a brief hiatus).

We started a few weeks ago with the 19-year-olds, covered the 20-year-olds, went over the 21-year-olds, took a look at the 22-year-olds Monday, examined the 23-year-olds Wednesday and ranked the 24-year-olds Thursday, so today we’ll finally move on to the top 25-year-olds in the association right now.
