The top of the 2018 NBA draft board is off to an encouraging start, with a handful of rookies, led by Luka Doncic, flashing signs of real All-Star potential. Doncic may be an all-star in his first NBA season, as the Mavericks' point-forward is currently second in Western conference frontcourt voting.

Doncic will be the only rookie to sniff the all-star game this year, but which other rookies have shown flashes of future all-star status? And what kind of all-star status are we talking about?

Not every All-Star is equal. Some show up on rosters every season. Others make cameos or put together shorter runs years down the road.

Today's NBA is loaded with 20-point scorers, and stats alone aren't enough anymore. Team development could ultimately play a significant role in the trajectory of these rookies' careers.

Based on skill sets, first-year production and windows to improve, we projected the following six players to have the best odds at cracking an All-Star roster at some point.
