The Toronto Raptors have reason to be comfortable, if not ecstatic, about their situation at the centre position. The depth chart lists Jonas Valanciunas, Lucas Nogueira and Jakob Poeltl, all of whom have proven themselves to be NBA-worthy.
None has so far emerged as an All-Star, or even a candidate. This is odd, particularly in the Eastern Conference where there’s a dearth of quality centers. The starting center(?) in the All-Star Game this month is Giannis Antetokounmpo, who will tip against Anthony Davis. Unibrow’s backups are DeMarcus Cousins and Marc Gasol, so the West has true centers to boast of.
