Phoenix Suns Roster Report

Robin Lopez, C, 7-0, Stanford: He is not nearly as offensively-gifted as his twin brother Brook, but Robin offers the defense, shot-blocking ability and high-energy motor the Suns have lacked in the middle.

Scouting the NBA Draft's top centers

1. Brook Lopez, Stanford, 7-0: Skilled, crafty player with many athleticism issues. 2. Kosta Koufos, Ohio St., 7-0: Has answered questions with series of strong workouts. 3. Robin Lopez, Stanford, 7-0: Brook's brother draws Anderson Varejao comparisons. 4. Roy Hibbert, Georgetown, 7-2: Upside has been reached; could excel in the halfcourt. 5. DeAndre Jordan, Texas A&M, 6-11: Raw talent has fallen from initial lottery projections. Of note Many draft boards have France's Alexis Ajinca ranked higher than the domestic alternatives, with Croatia's Ante Tomic and Turkey's Omer Asik other imports who could displace NCAA centers in the draft. As a group There is no Greg Oden, no franchise center in this draft. Rather, it is a group of supporting players, many of whom are lacking either on the boards, defensively or when it comes to post-up play. This will be a group taken according to need as much as any other factor.

NBA Draft Likely To Finally Separate Lopez Twins

Brook and Robin Lopez have been playing basketball together since the first grade. From driveway 1-on-1 to high school in Fresno, and later at Stanford, the twin 7-footers have never been far apart.

So you could forgive them for being sentimental about the future. The NBA draft on Thursday will likely separate the 20-year-olds for the first time in their lives.

But, frankly, you'd be wasting the compassion.

''It's the same adjustments really, it's just that I won't have that guy following me around anymore,'' joked Brook, the elder by a minute.
