New Philadelphia 76er, Dorrell Wright, has no qualms about stating his opinion on the best center in the NBA, and it’s his teammate Andrew Bynum. While the world gushed at Lakers GM Mitch Kupchak for bringing another dominant All-Star big man to LaLa Land, Wright says Bynum is “hands down” the best big in the league because of his ability to play a complete game, and draw the double-team.
“He’s going to need two defenders to stop him; I would say he’s the best big man in the NBA right now, hands down,” Wright said. “He’s a guy that can give you baskets with his back to the basket; a guy who makes free throws at 7-feet. You’ve just got to respect him.
“I’d say it any day, it’s because I know he can put his back to the basket and give us a basket and request a double team and make free throws. It’s his all-around game. Hopefully he can stay healthy and we can ride, he can put us on his back and he can take us as far as we can go.”
