Since being drafted at No. 4 overall in the 2015 NBA Draft, Kristaps Porzingis has become an irresistibly intriguing player. In less than two completed seasons, he’s already become one of the most versatile and dynamic players in New York Knicks history.
Following a successful change of position, it’s time for Porzingis’ temporary tenure at center to become a more permanent transition.
Playing the matchups makes sense for any NBA team, which opens the door for Willy Hernangomez to continue spotting starts at center. In the contemporary NBA, however, Porzingis is best fit to start at center more often than he does at power forward.
