Personal All-Time Favorites

Normally when I do an all-time list of any sort, I usually try to imply history, cut, and dry stats, influence/impact, and some form of fandom. So today just because my mind never turns off with this kind of stuff and decided to do a personal all-time favorite hoopers list for each position.

The criteria or approach is fairly simple, and it is what player impacted you the most, try or tried to emulate when you play and who simply made you love basketball so with that said let’s begin with my top 10 personal all-time favorites at point guard and see if you notice a trend here or not.
