Looking back on the career of a Michael Jordan, Kobe Bryant, or Magic Johnson once it&#39;s complete, there are many factors to consider:&nbsp;number of championships, overall contribution to great teams, even just looking at the statistics.

This list attempts to sort through all the NBA&#39;s most popular and famous current all stars to find the most talented, and the players who are the most essential to have on a winning team to truly determine who is the best active player in the NBA today. LeBron James and Stephen Curry, two of the most iconic and celebrated players to ever compete, dominated in the early rankings, but a number of other challengers for the title&mdash;such as Houston Rockets&nbsp;phenom&nbsp;James Harden&nbsp;and the legendary Russell Westbrook&mdash;have become favorites as well.
