Kristaps Porzingis / Washington (Player Option)
Tommy Gilligan-USA TODAY Sports
Playing some of his best basketball since his New York days. Shooting numbers are down but he’s still a huge threat from three. Good face-up scorer for a big man and still a very solid shot-blocker, too.

Nikola Vucevic / Chicago

Jakob Poeltl / Toronto

Extremely efficient center who does all of his damage on offense near the paint. Excellent defender who can bother foes down low and switch onto wings on occasion. Good finisher out of the pick-and-roll.
