Ranking Every Starting SG (Thread)
Rules:

-Same list used by Austin Sweatt since his list was brutally ranked

-Theo Maledon is replaced with Shai Gilgeous Alexander

-DeMar Derozan is replaced with Derrick White

-7 tiers of players
Tier 7:

30 - Grayson Allen
29 - Justin Holiday
28 - Wayne Ellington
27 - Eric Gordon

These are guys that definitely should not be starters at this point in their career. They can all be solid role players, but nothing more.
Tier 6:

26 - Kentavious Caldwell Pope
25 - Donte Divencenzo
24 - Bogdan Bogdanovic
23 - Terrence Ross

These guys also would be better off the bench. However they are serviceable of starting on a winning roster as long as you have multiple superstars beside them
Tier 5:

22 - Anthony Edwards
21 - Kelly Oubre
20 - Will Barton
19 - Eric Bledsoe
18 - Seth Curry
17 - Tim Hardaway Jr

These guys are not good starters, but they play their roles to perfection. Need a bucket? Edwards or Barton can get that for you. Need a stop? Bledsoe.
Tier 4:

16 - Derrick White
15 - Victor Oladipo
14 - Buddy Hield
13 - RJ Barrett
12 - Terry Rozier
11 - Marcus Smart

These guys are definitely worthy of a starting job. they cannot lead a team along, and they probably shouldn’t even be top 3 options on a winning team.
Tier 3:

10 - Free Van Vleet
9 - Collin Sexton
8 - Shai Gilgeous Alexander

These three guys are budding superstars. They are all too young to have proven anything to be in the next tiers, however they are stars in the league right now.
Tier 2:

7 - CJ McCollum
6 - Zach Lavine
5 - Donovan Mitchell
4 - Devin Booker

These guys are certified stars. All either the first or second option on their team and can lead a team in a given stat.
Tier 1:

3 - Bradley Beal
2 - Paul George
1 - Kyrie Irving

I feel like there is little explanation needed. Beal is a great scorer and is leading the wizard on a win streak. Paul George is a top 3 two way player. And Kyrie is a baller and has been unreal this season.
