The NBA season is nearly here. With weeks to go until tip-off, here are all of the projected starting centers in the NBA, ranked. Where will the Dallas Mavericks big man rank?

The Dallas Mavericks basketball season is nearing everyday and even though there haven’t been any real changes in awhile, the Mavs seem to have an idea of who they are going to start when the season begins. With educated guesses in place, it is now time to rank the starters at each individual position across the league.

We will be starting with the center position. The Mavs projected starter is Dwight Powell who started a fair portion of Dallas’ games last year after the DeAndre Jordan trade. Where will Powell land in the rankings?

One important thing to note is that the players listed here are based on the depth charts I was able to find on the internet and may not accurately represent the projected starters for each team. If I have the wrong starter for your team, please let me know in the comments, but most of these I do feel are correct.

I will be going through each position, ranking all 30 starters this year for each spot in the lineup. These rankings are based solely on my thoughts and observations from watching each of these players play. This is all opinion based and should by no means be taken as fact in any way.

So, without further ado, here are the 30 starting NBA centers, ranked based on how I believe they will perform this year.
