Recently, the American media quincy hoops ranked the power forwards of the 30 teams in the league for the 25-26 season. Note that each team selected a power forward for the ranking, rather than selecting the top 30 power forwards in the league, because some teams may have two outstanding PFs. Giannis Antetokounmpo is the undisputed number one.

1. Giannis (Bucks), 2. Anthony Davidson (Mavericks), 3. James (Lakers), 4. Mobley (Cavaliers), 5. Benqueiro (Magic);

6. Siakam (Pacers), 7. Zion Williams (Pelicans) , 8. Jaren Jackson Jr. (Grizzlies), 9. Anunoby (Knicks), 10. Scotty Barnes (Raptors);

11. Avdija (Trail Blazers), 12. Randle (Timberwolves), 13. Gordon (Nuggets), 14. Jaylen Johnson (Hawks), 15. Marr Kanin (Jazz);

16. Collins (Clippers), 17. Porter Jr. (Nets), 18. George (Philadelphia), 19. Miles Bridges (Hornets), 20. Dillon (Suns);

21. Koulibaly (Wizards), 22. Harten (Thunder), 23. Kuminga (Warriors), 24. Keegan Murray (Kings), 25. Jabari Smith Jr. (Rockets);

26. Toha (Pistons), 27. Harrison Barnes (Spurs), 28. Buzelis (Bulls), 29. Jovic (Heat), 30. Hauser (Celtics).

There will definitely be many questions in this list. For example, is James positioned as SF or PF? For example, why is Dillon, who is 1.96 meters tall, designated as a PF by the Suns? Dillon actually played the three position in the preseason!

For another example, Harteng actually played as a substitute at the five position in the Thunder. In some games, he played the five when paired with Holmgren in the Twin Towers, and Holmgren played the 4. It seems more reasonable for Holmgren to be included in this list.

The Wizards' Coulibaly's performance last season was very average. His performance was not as good as Kuminga, Murray, Jabari Jr. and others. Jovic's performance felt better than Coulibaly. Why is Coulibaly ranked 21st?
