Welcome to the dog days of the NBA calendar! Although we’re still waiting on Eric Bledsoe and Greg Monroe to (most likely) re-sign with their respective teams, free agency is all but done with and the 2014 FIBA World Cup is still a few weeks away. So what can we do to pass the time between now and the beginning of a new NBA cycle? NBA Power Rankings, of course!

Since there are still a lot of minor floating pieces from free agency, we’re going to hold off on our preseason team rankings for a little while longer. But until then, we’ll be ranking the top 10 players in the NBA at each position for the upcoming 2014-15 season. We’ve already covered the league’s top 10 point guards, and today we’ll be covering the shooting guards. Not only will we be factoring in everyone’s 2013-14 performance, but we’ll also be factoring in age, injury history, advanced statistics, importance to their team, the conference they play in and much more.

Let’s get started.

Honorable Mentions: Kobe Bryant, Tyreke Evans, Arron Afflalo, Jimmy Butler, Dion Waiters, Andrew Wiggins, Jamal Crawford, Wesley Matthews Eric Gordon, Victor Oladipo, Tony Allen, Avery Bradley, Kevin Martin, Gerald Green
