For the fourth straight year, ESPN.com and the TrueHoop Network are ranking every NBA player and counting them down on Twitter (@ESPNNBA) from No. 500 to No. 1.

We asked our ESPN Forecast panel to predict the overall level of play for each player for the upcoming NBA season. This includes both the quality and the quantity of his expected contributions, combined in one overall rating.

As the rankings are announced, you also can find them here on the pages of ESPN.com.

The players on our list keep getting better and better. We're counting down five more players today, revealing them one at a time on Twitter. We'll continue the countdown until Oct. 28, opening night in the NBA. Today we roll out players 31 through 35.

According to NBA.com player tracking data, Mike Conley possessed the ball for 7.4 minutes per game last season (fifth in the NBA). That's more than twice as long as the next Grizzlies player (Nick Calathes, 3.6).

@ESPNNBA A few years ago, @MacBo50 had Grizzlies a few games away from Finals. Now, with VC and others spacing the floor, is it their year? — Pavle Kisin-Rajlic (@Gambitguru77) October 17, 2014
