Ranking the 30 starting forwards in the NBA heading into 2017-18 

Utilizing the depth charts via ESPN, we put together a power rankings of every starting power forward in the NBA.

30. Brandan Wright – Memphis Grizzlies

Being ranked last in the league for starting Power Forwards does not make Wright a bad player. He is a serviceable role player. He is known for his vertical leap and ability to crash the boards. Despite that ability, he does not bring much else to the table.

29. Ersan Illyasova – Atlanta Hawks

Illyasova will be the starting Power Forward for the Atlanta Hawks this season, who are projected be one of the league’s worst teams. Illyasova is somewhat of a journeyman. He is playing for his sixth NBA team this season. He is an okay perimeter shooter, but does not have any other skill to go along with his touch from downtown.
