SMALL FORWARDSCENTERS

Jerami Grant / Portland

Allan Henry-USA TODAY Sports

Swiss Army knife player who can play – and defend – multiple positions. Much-improved scorer, particularly from three-point range. His versatility and ability to play small-ball 5 is the perfect archetype for a modern big man, but he can even play some wing if need be.

2022/23 stats: 20.7 ppg, 4.3 rpg, 2.3 apg, 48.2 FG%, 40.6 3P%

Unique big man who creates plays at a higher level than a lot of point guards. Shooting marks improved this season, which bodes well for his future as his athleticism continues to wane. Remains one of the most impactful defenders in the league.

2022/23 stats: 8.0 ppg, 7.6 rpg, 6.8 apg, 51.0 FG%, 32.6 3P%
2022/23 earnings: $25,806,468

Kyle Kuzma / Washington (Player Option)

Tommy Gilligan-USA TODAY Sports

Statistically enjoying his best season ever, though his efficiency remains just so-so. Versatile big man on offense who can shoot, face-up and score iso buckets and create plays for others.

Christian Wood / Dallas

David Banks-USA TODAY Sports

A big man who can score from beyond the arc and finish around the bucket thanks to his athleticism. Defensive effort and impact is improving, too.

Grant Williams / Boston (Restricted)

Nell Redmond-USA TODAY Sports

Defensive specialist who can guard multiple positions thanks to instincts, size and quick feet. Mostly just a good spot-up shooter on offense but a smart player who keeps the ball moving and doesn’t try to do too much.

Good defender who slides well on defense and can bang with big men down low. Average offensive player whose jump shot needs to get more reliable. Has some decent face-up moves.
