I'll start. Lowest IQ, Jordan Poole. He constantly takes horrible shots. Has bad clock awareness. Constantly over dribbling resulting in him slipping and falling on the floor.

Highest IQ, Lebron James. Anyone with basketball knowledge should already know this. He is a basketball savant. A prolific passer. See's the whole floor and gets everyone involved. And he's done this for over 20 years!

There are so many high IQ players out there, it is very hard to pick just one. Bron is of course right at the top amongst those players.

Lowest IQ? Wiseman to me is one of them and Ivey isn't great. I don't feel Sharpe is especially high IQ yet. But there aren't too many just dirt poor IQ guys in the league these days....you can't survive in this era that way. The days of the athletic no-skill guy are basically over. You're a liability on the floor, offensively in particular, if you're unable to process within a team context quickly enough and make good reads and decisions.
