Why The Denver Nuggets Do The Deal 

Both of these teams provide good examples of how the league is moving away from position-based basketball and towards positionless basketball. 

As a matter of fact, the center position has undergone just as much change as the point guard position has. In today’s NBA, centers can effectively serve as point guards because of their positional versatility. 

There is no doubt that Nikola Jokic is the best example of this principle. It is safe to say that he is not just one of the best passing big men in the NBA but is also one of the best passers overall in the league, period. This Nuggets offense runs through him entirely. 

Alperen Sengun, on the other hand, will have to put in a lot of work if he is to reach Jokic’s level. It is true that he has some stylistic similarities with him.
