Who wouldn't want the greatest basketball player on the planet to be on their team?

A majority of NBA players wish they could compete alongside "The King," as evident by LeBron James of the Cleveland Cavaliers being voted by his peers as the Player You Secretly Wish Was On Your Team at the inaugural NBPA Players' Awards on Tuesday.

Tim Duncan (San Antonio Spurs), Anthony Davis (New Orleans Pelicans), and reigning MVP Steph Curry (Golden State Warriors) were also nominated.

The four-time NBA MVP took the Cavaliers back to the postseason for the first time since 2009-10, putting up 25.3 points, 7.4 assists, and six rebounds as Cleveland finished with 20 more victories than the year before.
