I used to play like Embiid, he is reckless on purpose.
If you’re going to put guys like Kapono and Kerr on here, then Tim Legler’s 1995-96 season deserves a mention as well. He shot 52% from three on 3.2 attempts a game and played 77 games that season.
The majority of starting centers don’t have a three point shot.
Jarrett Allen, Mitchell Robinson, Nic Claxton, Bam Adebayo, Clint Capela, Jakob Poeltl, Daniel Gafford, Mason Plumlee, Isaiah Stewart, Steven Adams, Deandre Ayton, Ivica Zubac, Kevon Looney, Rudy Gobert, Dwight Powell and Walker Kessler were all starters for their respective teams last year and have a basically non-existent three point shot. That means that 17/30 starting centers don’t have a three point shot at all.
You also have guys like AD, Domantas Sabonis, Jusuf Nurkic, Jonas Valanciunas and Alperen Sengun who can’t hit the three ocassionaly but shoot a really low volume so they’re also not solid shooters.
So basically 22/30 starting centers don’t have a “solid three point shot”.
Speaking about rebounding, Danny Fortson is a practically forgotten undersized big who was a beast on the boards for a while.
He was a 6ft7 power forward, who would also play at center at times, that averaged 12 RPG (and 4 ORPG) in a season twice. Once with the Nuggets in the 1998-99 season and once with the Warriors in the 2001-02 season.
He constantly played on bad teams and only made the playoffs once in his later years with Seattle, but he was a terrific rebounder who isn’t talked about at all now.
I think that Steve Nash is the perfect comparison for him.
Great passer and playmaker, great shooter, extremely efficient and orchestrates both the fastest paced and highest scoring offense in the league.
If Nash was in the league today he’d be encouraged to shoot more threes given his amazing percentages, so he’ll basically be as close to a player like Haliburton as anyone could be.
