NBA Value Rankings: CENTER

An up-to-date look at the value rankings of all active NBA players based on a mathematical comparison of their current average salary against their cumulative "production points". These points are made up of major statistical categories relevant to that player's position. From there, we generate a score for each player among their position, to rank them with a "value".
