#35: Ian Mahinmi, Washington Wizards
Height: 6’11”
Position: Center
Bottom line: Here is a player that has continued to excel even after a decade of dedicated hard work. Being on his eleventh NBA year has not diminished Mahinmi’s performance. That is if he keeps up his sporting commitment to banging inside, the towering guy out of France may maintain his high life commitment to being a backup center in the NBA. He has the kind of commitment that the passage of time cannot diminish.

#36: Zaza Pachulia, Detroit Pistons
Height: 6’1”
Position: Center
Bottom line: Pachulia isn’t the best regarded as a fan favorite within the league, due to being labeled as a dirty player thanks to his stumbling nature. Whether his lumbering nature is a natural result of his size, or he intentionally tries his luck, Zaza could certainly clean up his game. Regardless, he has constructed a commendable career. After achieving two rings alongside the Warriors, he now reinforces Andre Drummond within Detroit.
