Who is the best shotblocker in this draft?
LaMarcus Aldridge? Tyrus Thomas? Someone else?

Hilton Armstrong, Shelden Williams, Justin Williams would be my top 3 (not in any particular order) shotblocking big men. I could see Rudy Gay becoming a Gerald Wallace type shot blocker at the 3.

Tyrus definately has the best shot blocking ability, his height may hurt him just a little... but nothing drastic... he's definately the best in the draft.

Re: Who is the best shotblocker in this draft?
I'd say Aldridge, Thomas and Cedric Simmons are the top three right now.
I excluded Shelden Williams mainly because I just don't think he's going to be able to block people three times a game in the NBA. I just cant see 6'8" guys attacking him and throwing up bad shots to give him that type of opportunity game after game.

Agree with Sene, with his athleticism and 7'8 wingspan he could be a dominant shot blocker
