Objavljeni spisak samo je jedan od načina na koji će obilježiti 75. godina postojanja sjevernoameričke košarkaške lige, a igrače su izabrani glasanjem sadašnjih i penzionisanih NBA igrača, trenera, osoblja, igračice WNBA i novinara.
Zanimljivo da spisak obuhvata 76, a ne 75 košarkaša jer su posljednja dvojica izjednačena po broju glasova, ali NBA nije saopćila njihova imena.
