Was scrolling Instagram last night and I stumbled upon somebody's 2021 prediction of who the NBA's top 10 centers would be five years later, in 2026. All things considered, not too bad a list considering Mobley, Chet and Wemby weren't even in the league yet.
But the thing that stuck out to me (aside from Wiseman) was Christian Wood. I was a huge fan of him and his story when he was on the Rockets, and I was honestly surprised he fell off as much as he did.
