Larry Sanders

Larry Sanders is the sort of player I find quietly fascinating: a 211-centimeter shot-blocker out of Virginia Commonwealth, taken 15th overall by the Milwaukee Bucks. Defensive anchors rarely get the headlines that scorers do, but anyone who has watched a true rim protector knows how much they bend an offense out of shape. Standing in the paint at that height, he could break an opponent's resolve before they even rose for the shot. I have a soft spot for athletes who make their mark on the unglamorous end of the floor, and his physical gifts paired with defensive instinct make him exactly that type.
