8. Festus Ezeli
[xyz-ihs snippet=”Second-Middle-of-Article”]
Ezeli’s numbers will not pop out at you as he is not truly dominant at any one facet of the game, however, he was good enough to start at center on a 73-win Golden State Warriors team this past season. Ezeli is only 26 and is the long, strong athletic type who will protect the rim and clog the lane. He can catch lob passes and throw them down with authority, too.
Granted, he is not high on the radar for many teams, but he is a serviceable big man that can get the job done. In addition, he’s still honing his game and will only get better. He’s never really had a chance to shine in his own right because of the massive collection of talent in Golden State, but Ezeli knows what to do when the moment is his.
