Forward-center

Typically, this means power forward and center, since these are usually the two biggest player positions on any basketball team, and therefore more often overlap each other.

Typically, a forward–center is a talented forward who also came to play minutes at center on teams that need help at that position.

Ewing himself also played forward-center early in his career to complement the then-incumbent Knicks center, 7′ 1″ (216 cm) Bill Cartwright.

Fellow Knicks legend Willis Reed was moved to the forward–center position when the team acquired fellow center Walt Bellamy in 1965; Reed moved back to center in 1968 after the Knicks traded Bellamy to the Detroit Pistons for Dave DeBusschere.

Infamously drafted in the second round of the 2014 draft class during a Taco Bell commercial, Jokic has proven to be one of the best centers in NBA history with an impressive career, including 6 All-Star appearances, 6 All-NBA appearances, 3 league MVP awards, and a Finals MVP for leading the Denver Nuggets to their first championship in 2023.
