So far the author has covered top 50 - top 10 young players and Brunson didn't even make it to an honorable mention with the likes of Bazley, Miles Bridges, Zach Collins, Culver, Diallo, Dort,... I doubt we will see him in top 10 Perhaps an overlook but one wonders.

Here is the comment of the author, why Brunson is "overlooked": I love Jalen, think he’ll play in the NBA for a decade. But I think basically the only guys he could start at point next to are Luka and LeBron. I’m super glad he’s found his spot though, and that’s what’s most important for his career.
Jalen's play of late places him in that top 50 group. If he is consistent, then he will get recognized for it. When I first saw the article, I thought he was better than several in the top 50. I bet a unicorn Luka is number one.
