Age: 23

Le’Veon Bell is a running back, and he did some serious running in the 2014 NFL season.

The Proof: He was second in the league in rushing yards (1,361). However, he also racked up some serious yardage through the air as well. You know, if you think 854 receiving yards is serious yardage for a RUNNING BACK. Talking about fantasy football gold.

Kyrie Irving missing the most important time of the season aside (2015 NBA Finals), he is a top ball-handler in the league — and in the world. That will be the case for a very long time. After all, Uncle Drew is only 23 years old.

Rookies don't always succeed right away in the NFL. Don't tell Mike Evans that, though. He racked up 1,051 receiving yards and 12 TDs in his rookie season, which was in 2014. Year No. 2 ought to be pretty darn good.

7. Kawhi Leonard

Age: 24

He will never go down as the flashiest star of all time. Kawhi Leonard, the rather quiet star, doesn't wear his emotions, but he has definitely arrived. Leonard is one of the best two-way players in the league — and that is big time.
