The center position is often unfairly looked over in the NBA, therefore, see who should be considered the top-tier of this position.

In today’s NBA, sometimes the center position can be written off as forgotten or unimportant. Today’s league is often times ran by the guards and small forward positions, with stars such as Stephen Curry, LeBron James, and Russell Westbrook leading the charge in the new-day NBA.

In fact, many power forwards are starting to make their moves to the center position in something that many teams are calling their “small ball” lineup such as Draymond Green and possibly Kevin Durant. This being said, there are still many talented centers in the NBA today, and even PF/C as well.
