Kristaps Porzingis / Washington (player option)
Tommy Gilligan – USA TODAY Sports
Playing some of his best sneakers from his New York days. The number of shots is down but there is still a huge threat from three. Good face up scorer for a big man and still a very solid shot blocker as well.

Dennis Wierzbicki – USA TODAY Sports
Defensively deficient big man whose shooting has cooled to the point that his impact often wanes towards the negative. Still, a double-double machine with a good faceup score and low post-up skill.
2022/23 statistics: 18.0 ppg, 11.3 rpg, 3.4 apg, 52.2 FG%, 36.1 3P%

Extremely effective center that does all its damage in attack near the paint. Excellent defender who can disturb enemies down below and occasionally switch wings. Good finisher off the pick-and-roll.

Lopez Creek/Milwaukee
Jeff Hanisch-USA TODAY Sports
Despite his advanced age, still extremely effective thanks to three-point shooting and shot blocking. Can also get you a bucket out of the pole once in a while.

Kevin Love / Miami
Sam Navarro-USA TODAY Sports
Adapted well from being a superstar to being a bench role player and locker room leader. Can still shoot really well for a big man, gobble up rebounds and create for teammates.

As he improved, he became a very productive and hard-hitting big man, able to space the floor, attack face up and finish low.
