As many as 10 centers may go in the first round of the 2013 NBA Draft, which would be higher than any draft in recent memory. Nerlens Noel, Alex Len, Steven Adams, Cody Zeller, Kelly Olynyk, Mason Plumlee, Gorgui Dieng, Rudy Gobert, Lucas Nogueira and Jeff Withey are all projected as first-round picks.

That’s a ridiculous number, considering most drafts have just a handful of centers that are selected in the first round.

Not to mention, six or more centers could be drafted in the second round of this year’s draft including Mike Muscala, Colton Iverson, Marko Todorovic, Vitalis Chikoko, Bojan Dubljevic and DeWayne Dedmon.

Even though centers take a while to develop, you have to think that negatively affects Lopez' trade value if that was ever part of the plan.

Lopez is a somewhat proven commodity on a non-guaranteed deal for the next two seasons, which means he has value to any team needing a big man.


A number of these guys aren't going to be contributing for probably 2-3 years, like Adams, Gobert, Noguera, etc. Hell, Noel himself won't be contributing much for a while due to his injury.
