Which big in today’s league do you think is the closest that we have to a traditional 90s big? (alien.top)

What I mean is a player who postups a lot, or gets his points from pick and rolls and putbacks. Doesn’t really shoot threes, and if he does they’re minimal. Back is to the basket a lot. Focuses a lot on defense and rebounding. Basically what you would think of a 90s big man

Plus if he catches the ball more than one step away from the basket, he looks like a baby deer that's about to get plastered by a semi truck. Very much a throwback compared to modern bigs who often have a lot of skill with the ball, as either a shooter or a passer.

And still complains about his lack of touches from time to time. 😂 I love Mitch, but what's he gonna do with more touches?
