Don't drop Troy Murphy if you don't have to. But if I were forced to choose, I would take Wilcox this year. I don't think Troy Murphy will be shooting as many threes this year at center, especially after Nelson gave that chucking ultimatum. Wilcox was great at the end of the season and will be the uncontested starter at his position. Plus he's been working on his shot-blocking in the offseason.

I picked up Wilcox this year, there is not a single other big on the Sonics that can average over 7 points a game, so he'll be the first option whenever they pass it inside + he gets to live off Allen & Lewis misses.
As for Murphy, I doubt how much energy he'll have left after fighting off opposing centers all the time and having to run with Davis & Richardson.
It's your bet, are you feeling lucky?
there has to be somebody else you can drop for Wilcox, unless it's a very shallow league... Wilcox has more value/upside/potential right now, but Murphy's is an underrated double-double machine...
Well I like the Name Troy, Going into Battle with me, Read a few Books, and if troy plays Center and don't shoot 3's that will be just fine with me, cause he will be the best Center in the league at FT% and the kid can play with his back to the basket, he is young and I see his numbers rising this year, I believe they will use him outside as Much as Okur and Gasol play's. As for wilcox he made a statement, But I'll take a 10-10 80% Center all day. I can't wait to see PF-C Beside his name in Fantasy.
