Kosta Koufos

Younger than he looks at 26 years old, Koufos has long established himself as a productive NBA center and will likely come out of the next week as an absolute steal for one lucky team.

Flying under the radar a little due to being the third best of Memphis’ big men behind Marc Gasol and Zach Randolph, Koufos is versatile, and experienced for his age having just completed his seventh season in the league.

Per 36 minutes for his career, Koufos averages a double-double of 12.7 points and 11.0 boards with 1.9 blocks to go along with them. Couple that with a player who’s team have been eight points better than their opponent per 100 possessions for his career, and it’s clear the Greek national can man the middle on both ends.
