Kristaps Porzingis has largely played at power forward during his career, but many believe his best position in the present and future is center. Porzingis revealed he is open to playing center now.

"It doesn't really matter to me," said Porzingis on his position. "I want to be in the best position defensively where I can be the most effective, and I want to be put in plays where I'm the hardest to guard on offense.

"Last season, I was averaging 2.4 blocks until I got injured playing the 4 position most of the time. A lot of times, there's stretch 4s and guys trying to drag me out, and still I was able to do that. It all depends on matchups. I don't think it's the right thing for me to be fighting the whole game against a 5 guy that's a post-up guy, but if it's a guy that's close to the rim that's not really a post-up guy, and I can help off and help my teammates... It all depends on the matchups."

The Mavericks have cap space and have been linked to a pursuit of a center.
