- Tim Duncan. Played for: San Antonio Spurs. Tim Duncan wasn't the best scorer around, nor was he the best rebounder, but few players made as much of an impact as he did across his 19 years with the San Antonio Spurs.
- Karl Malone. Played for: Utah Jazz, Los Angeles Lakers. If Karl Malone isn't the best player to never win a ring, he's certainly in the discussions. Throughout his 19 seasons in the NBA, few players were as good at scoring as Malone.
- Kevin Garnett. Played for: Minnesota Timberwolves, Boston Celtics, Brooklyn Nets. Everyone on this list is great, obviously, but only Kevin Garnett played himself in one of the best movies about sports possibly ever in Uncut Gems, so that should be worth something.
- Dirk Nowitzki. Played for: Dallas Mavericks. When you look at Dirk Nowitzki, he doesn't quite resemble the archetype for a power forward. He wasn't a bruiser like Barkley or Antetokounmpo.
- Tim Duncan. Timothy Theodore Duncan. (Timmy, The Big Fundamental, Groundhog Day, Old Man Riverwalk, The Stone Buddha) Position: Center and Power Forward ▪ Shoots: Right.
- Karl Malone. Karl Anthony Malone ▪ Twitter: TheDeliverer_32. (The Mailman, King Karl) Position: Power Forward ▪ Shoots: Right. 6-9, 250lb (206cm, 113kg) Born: July 24, 1963 (Age: 59-348d) in Summerfield, Louisiana us.
- Kevin Garnett. Kevin Maurice Garnett ▪ Twitter: KevinGarnett5KG. (KG, The Big Ticket, The Kid) Position: Power Forward, Center, and Small Forward ▪ Shoots: Right.
- Dirk Nowitzki. Pronunciation: \Na-VIT-skee\ Dirk Werner Nowitzki ▪ Twitter: swish41. (Dirty, Tall Baller from the G, German Race Car, German Jesus) Position: Power Forward and Center ▪ Shoots: Right.
- Tim Duncan. Throughout Duncan’s entire tenure with the San Antonio Spurs, he was the true definition of the unselfish superstar and was a huge part of creating the franchise’s team-oriented culture.
- Giannis Antetokounmpo. The Greek Freak’s rise to stardom is one of the most impressive stories in the NBA. He was drafted in the latter half of the first round and has made tremendous strides in every season of his career.
- Karl Malone. Without a championship resume to solidify his place amongst the all-time greats, Malone’s position on this list is very fitting, considering he ranks in the top ten for career points and rebounds.
- Kevin Garnett. Garnett is widely recognized as one of the best two-way players in NBA history. Before his success with the Boston Celtics, KG was one of the best players in the NBA in a Minnesota Timberwolves uniform.
