More and more power forwards and centers are stretching the floor now as it is clear that skilled players are now a premium in basketball, regardless of where it is being played. That has been the case in the NBA, where bigger players are now spotting out in the perimeter or are actually hitting three-pointers.
While the power forwards and centers were almost always camping in the paint to hit hook shots or dunk on their defenders, many of these players are now spotting up on the perimeter to drain midrange shots or even make it a point to open the floor for the guards by showcasing their improved range from the three-point line. And such names included the likes of LaMarcus Aldridge, Chris Bosh, Kristaps Porzingis, Anthony Davis, and Nikola Jokic, among others.
The unicorn movement is what this phenomenon is often called because of how these players are literal unicorns in the sense that they are quite rare. It is not quite often that players with the size of power forwards and centers are capable of hitting shots like shooting guards or dribbling the ball like point guards. This unicorn movement has become commonplace in the world of basketball, where skill now trumps size and athleticism.
