Rather than rank them, I'd give them tiers. I'm sure people will disagree with a lot of it but that's fine. I think the players in the tiers are pretty interchangeable for the most part. Some if it is obviously based on potential but I'm not counting guys who aren't producing right now.
Tier 1
Tatum
Ball
Mitchell
Doncic
Zion
SGA (fight me)
Tier 2
Ben Simmons
Bam
Young
Collins
Jaylen Brown
Sabonis
Booker
Jamal Murray
Ja Morant
Ingram
Fox
Tier 3
Herro
Hunter
RJ Barrett
Lauri
OG
Sexton
Garland
Ayton
Gary Trent
Dejounte Murray
James Wiseman (don't know where to rank)
Anthon Edwards (don't know where to rank)
JJJ
Lonzo
Haliburton
Everyone else:
Monk
PJ Washington
Coby White
Wendall Carter Jr
Patrick Williams
Myles Turner
Hachimura
Thomas Bryant
Jarrett Allen
Mikal Bridges
Cameron Johnson
Michael Porter
Lonnie Walker
Keldon Johnson
Time Lord
Jalen Brunson
Clarke
Bane
Melton
Maledon
Bagley
Beasley
DAR
I would have guessed Brown was in the top 20 players under 25. He's anywhere from 7 to 17. I don't think he's all that much better than Ingram, Fox, Murray, Ja. I could see Edwards and Wiseman passing him too, but by the time they do that... Brown will no longer be under 25. Tatum would fall anywhere from 1-6, but on most list the top 3.
Do people disagree on my ranking of Brown?
