Kristaps Porzingis
PF/C, 7’3, 240lbs, 22 years old, 2 years of experience
Not an enormous amount of development on show as a sophomore, but still an immense bundle of skills. Porzingis is a legitimately excellent rim deterrent when in the right position, and increasingly a go-to offensive player, at least when his team remembers to turn to him. His future is at the centre position, even if it is not with this team, but a consolidation year rather than a breakout year didn’t dim his stardom any.
Player Plan: Two years of rookie scale salary remaining. Much as he might not be wanted in a battle of egos, he ought to be, because he represents the short, medium and long-term futures in a way that no other player or asset does.
