ESPN.com ranked Portland Trail Blazers All-Star forward No. 25 on their latest list of the league's top players.
This is an abbreviated version of the site's full top-500 rankings that only covers the top 30. There was no real explanation included, but so far Aldridge trails Washington Wizards guard John Wall, Boston Celtics guard Rajon Rondo, Chicago Bulls guard Derrick Rose and New York Knicks center Tyson Chandler, who rank from No. 21 to No. 24.
Aldridge, who was selected to his second consecutive All-Star Game this season, ranked No. 20 overall back in September 2012.
