Players who get overrated because they have a cool name (alien.top)

I feel like if Carmelo Anthony was named George Hickson or something like that he would have no shot at making the top 75 and would be remembered similarly to Bernard King (as he should be).

Similarly if Cade Cunningham didn't have such a cool name people would be a lot quicker to call him a bust. He'd probably be out of the league already if his name was Paul George.

Can yall think of any other examples?

Mojave King should have been MVP.
