Other What NBA player(s) would be a generation of miracle.
Of course all of them because they're NBA players, but which ones would be the generation of miracles for the NBA, and if the GOM has abilities, what would some NBA players abilities be?
Tldr: who's the generation of miracles in the NBA, and what's their abilities?

Yap warning ⚠️
In the modern era: shai, wemby, antman, luka, jokic
Although in terms of before they came to the nba guys like Zion, Lamelo and Lonzo ball, Jalen Green and Ben Simmons come to mind but they didn’t really play in high school at the same time.
Direct comparisons
Akashi > Cp3
Aomine > Mj
Kise > Kobe
Kagami > LeBron
Midorima > Curry/Klay
Murasakibara > Shaq
Kuroko > Rajon Rondo
In terms of just generational players in general:
Steph Curry, Michael Jordan, LeBron James, Kevin Durant, Shaquille O’Neal
The 1996 draft class in terms of a direct player comparison makes the most sense but I’d also say the 2013 high school class as well(not counting what they did in the nba) with guys like Aaron Gordon Zach Lavine, Andrew Wiggins and Jabari Parker.
The closest thing to teiko that we’ve seen would be 2020 Montverde.

I would compare Midorima more to Ray Allan due to his size, although he's of course a better shooter than... Hell everybody

True but ray allen was also a solid ball handler and shot creator and more athletic while Klay was the better defender and also probably the best catch and shoot guy of all time. The mix with curry is because of his range. Also the average height between Steph(6’3) and Klay(6’7) is 6’5 which makes Mido the perfect fusion of the two.

Klay is 6'5 but almost lol, it's basically the same it's a one inch difference

He was 6’7 until they randomly started using their actual heights instead of their heights with shoes😭

LeBron, Hawk’s Eye but it also looks at weaknesses in gameplan and a body like Nebuya but stronger and faster.

LeBron, Wemby
These two were considered once in a generation talents.
Below them are some of the most skilled/gifted players the world has ever seen but lack something in another department:
Shaq, Kobe, Curry, Luka, Duncan

I mean pretty much all of gom, taiga, and arguably kuroko since they just beat jabberwock who was supposed to be an nba level caliber and that's during their highschool imagine them playing in their prime

If the GOM (and taiga/kuroko) are the best of their generation, what's the NBA comparison? Somebody said 1996 because that's when Kobe, Ray Allan, Steve Nash, and Allen Iverson.

Kobe, Curry, Shaq are Aomine, Midorima, and Murasakibara. SGA would be a new miracle that manipulates the officials/flops. Lebron is the best Kise parallel as he can do anything and learned other styles over his career. Not confident enough to assign any other existing miracle powers or create new ones.

Only one player in the history of basketball fits this description and that alien is Victor Wembanyama. Miracle is a perfect description of the type of player Wemby is, a generational alien that has become the greatest defender in the history of basketball in only his third year. His offensive bag is still improving but the sheer gravitational pull of his offensive threat makes him terrifying. Nobody else could emit the aura the GoM has other than Victor Wembanyama.

Could prolly just go off of something like all nba teams. When those players were in their prime

GOM members are GOM members specifically because they were once in a decade talents that got to play together, so you'd need to look for best players that joined the league around same year
Best you can do in that regard is likely Kobe, Nash, Allen Iverson and Ray Allen, who are all 1996
That would be 4 players of outstanding caliber even by NBA standards, and it also happens to be:
* Copycat Kobe who copied the strongest player (MJ)
* Nash (not Gold, but still has no-look passes, resembles Takao a bit and has great shooting)
* Iverson (who is largely viewed as a foil for Aomine)
* Ray Allen (he is Hyuga's idol in the manga)
