The Prospect Pyramid: Ridiculous Upside's NBA D-League Center Rankings (12/15/14 Update)

The 2014-15 NBA D-League season has officially been underway for an entire month now. As the campaign comes into full swing, a slew of promising prospects, talented young guns, and previous NBA vets hoping for a second chance, are all matching up rather nicely to see who receives an oh so coveted call-up to The Association sooner, rather than later.

For the second consecutive season, RidiculousUpside.com returns with its Prospect Pyramid.

The comprehensive rankings system is broken down by position, highlighting the top seven players at each one. Week in and week out, the RU staff will provide its readers and basketball fans alike with a look at which prospects are closer, or at least, deservedly so, to a call-up than others, and why.

Without further adieu, here's the first pyramid of the new season for the center position:

1) Khem Birch, Sioux Falls Skyforce

2) Willie Reed, Grand Rapids Drive

3) Joe Alexander, Santa Cruz Warriors

4) Earl Barron, Bakersfield Jam

5) Arinze Onuaku, Canton Charge

6) Mac Koshwal, Bakersfield Jam

7) Hasheem Thabeet, Grand Rapids Drive
