There are many NBA players who lack a fan base and are now underrated because of it. These are the players that are not appreciated enough because of that.

We all have been in a debate with a friend where they overrate their team’s best player. “No, really, I think he’s a top 10 player in the league, maybe you should just watch him more”. Clearly your friend was overrating his favorite player, regardless, you are likely to leave that conversation with just a little more appreciation for that one player. A fan base can inflate your opinions on players but the reverse is just as effective.

If they did not achieve much for the team that drafted them, if their prime consisted of more than one team, if their legacy is split between numerous fan bases; chances are they are underrated. That is because they lack the privileges one-team players have. That means no one is exaggerating to you just how great their careers really were. No elaborating about how they were the centerpiece for the franchise’s history. And no bias.

These players don’t get enough recognition for their immense talent and for what they were able to accomplish in their careers. But no more. The following are the top-10 players all-time who lack a fan base.
