4. Power Forward

DON’T YELL AT ME THROUGH YOUR COMPUTER.

Ranking 2-4 is extremely objective. Do you consider Enes Kanter to be a center or power forward? What about Joffrey Lauvergne? Domantas Sabonis? Almost every OKC Thunder big is interchangeable so how can we rank it?

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Ultimately it comes down to who will be playing the position during the season. Steven Adams has the center position locked up for the next decade so Sabonis and the rest of the bigs will get the majority of their work at power forward this season.

Enes Kanter will put up numbers alongside Adams, but that isn’t enough to push power forward into the top three.
