The NBA has just announced its pick for the best 15 players from the 2010s, helping to squash those frequent “Kobe vs LeBron” debates.

Dubbed the “NBA All-Decade Team,” the 15 players have been divided into three different teams based on their performance over the past 10 years. Each team includes two backcourt players and three front-court players.

Making the first team is LeBron James, who entered the league back in 2003, along with Stephen Curry, who undoubtably single-handedly changed the game over the years. The two powerhouses are joined by James Harden, Kevin Durant and recent NBA Finals MVP Kawhi Leonard. Over a 10-year span, this team has won a total of 10 rings.

The second team is led by recently traded Russell Westbrook who is joined by Chris Paul, Anthony Davis, Blake Griffin and Carmelo Anthony.

Lakers legend Kobe Bryant finally makes his appearance on the third team — which is a mix between new, old and in-between — alongside Dwyane Wade, Paul George, LaMarcus Aldridge, and 2019 MVP Giannis Antetokounmpo.

The players were chosen by a panel of NBA.com and NBA TV producers and analysts. Head over to NBA.com for more details.
