1988-89 PLAYER RATINGS

February 4, 2002

   Welcome to Alleyoop.com's player ratings. Using a detailed formula, I have developed a system that rates every player's statistical performance, and have ratings for ever year going back to 1989. Over the next several weeks I will be placing these ratings on the site. For more on the player ratings, check the player ratings main page.

Below are the top 50 players from the 1988-89 season. Michael Jordan was the top-rated player, and his was the highest rating of all the years for which I have them. I've also included some stats from the season to give you an idea of how they ended up with their rating. Keep in mind these ratings are on a per-minute basis, so some players may be ranked very highly if they played well in a limited number of minutes:
