Anthony Davis over Joel Embiid for the starting center for Team USA

Both Anthony Davis and Joel Embiid came off great seasons in the NBA. Davis was great throughout the season but was snubbed from the Defensive Player of the Year selection. Embiid on the other was great on offense and was even in the MVP race in the first half of the season.

There is still a lot of confusion on who will start for Team USA. However, many experts have chosen Davis over Embiid as the starting center due to his defensive presence. Davis has contributed a lot in the exhibition matches with consecutive double-doubles. Embiid has done well in the exhibition matches but hasn’t played a lot due to load management.

Team USA head coach Steve Kerr is experimenting with lineups to see which is the most effective one. It will be difficult for Kerr to choose the starting center.
