Having only played one year in the NBA Atlanta Hawks, center Al Horford was surprised and honored at being named as one of the top 20 centers in the NBA. The 6'10 Horford is playing in a new position, as he was used to playing power forward while in college, yet demonstrated great skill and potential during a tremendous rookie season. According to Tim Povtak, who compiled the list, Horford plays, "a little out of position, but he handles it well, using his youth and athleticism to provide what the Hawks need at this spot. Had a good rookie season, which gave a young team hope for the future. He is a smart player with a good work ethic, and he should improve considerably this season."
