It seems every season, one of the key positions that teams are looking to add is center. Whether that’s in free agency on value deals, or more desperately at the trade deadline, talent near the rim is key.
But even then, we’ve seen just as much — if not more — success from teams who add quality center depth in the draft. Often times, young centers in the NBA are able to make a very early impact. Look at Dereck Lively, who was selected by the Dallas Mavericks during the 2023 NBA Draft and is one of their most important players on this NBA Finals run. The year prior, in the 2022 NBA Draft, centers like Jalen Duren, Mark Williams and Walker Kessler were instant impact rookies for their respective teams.
