Positions and Size Among the Group
Guards make up the largest positional group, with 6 of the 14 players listed there. Centers and forwards each account for 4 players. The size range is notable — four players stand at 7'0" or taller, including Chet Holmgren (7'1", Oklahoma City Thunder) and Luke Kornet (7'1", San Antonio Spurs), while several guards come in well below that mark.
