Is Dr. J a Top-15 Player of All Time?
Bleacher Report’s new all-time rankings have Julius “Dr. J” Erving at #20, but that feels too low. For many fans, he’s easily top 15, maybe even flirting with the top 10.
Career numbers: 24.2 PPG, 8.5 RPG, 4.2 APG, 2 SPG.
Best season: 32 points, 12 rebounds, 5 assists, 2.5 steals, and 2 blocks per game.
Career honors (ABA + NBA):
4× MVP
16× All-Star
12× All-NBA
2× Finals MVP
3× Scoring Champ
3× Champion
ABA’s Greatest Player of All Time
Beyond stats, Dr. J brought style, flair, and cultural influence with his high-flying dunks, afro, and chains.
So… is B/R underrating him, or is top-15 all-time too generous?
