ESPN’s Jeff Goodman polled the 32 NBA executives on which front-court player age 25 or younger they would take on their teams.
Sitting and thinking of the front-court players in the NBA there are some great talents in the pool. Two of the top three choices may surprise you but whom was chosen No. 1 may not.
San Antonio Spurs forward Kawhi Leonard was on the top of the list.
When I polled NBA execs of top front court player they would take 25 or younger, went like this: 1) Kawhi 2) Towns 3) Anthony Davis

Leonard has already racked up accolades that usually takes others time to accomplish: Two-time Defensive Player of the Year, 2013-14 Finals MVP, 2015-16 All-NBA and named to the leagues All-Defensive team three times as well.
