Charles Barkley Names Two Most Underrated NBA Players Of Last 20 Years
NBA analyst Charles Barkley has made a name for himself on television as someone who loves to predict or guarantee outcomes in basketball. He’s been vocal about certain players and teams, confident in a few that he believes are levels above the rest.
Barkley recently talked about the two most underrated players he’s seen since he’s been working as an analyst.
He believes that Jrue Holiday of the Boston Celtics and Mike Conley of the Minnesota Timberwolves take the cake as the two most underrated players in the last 20 years.
The impact that both of them make as a leader, and their willingness to compete on both ends of the floor highlights them as top-level players in Barkley’s eyes.

These are two players who have made consistent impacts on every team they’ve played with and continue to fly under the radar as NBA veterans.
Barkley certainly shares a great case for two of the best silent leaders in the game.
