Earl Monroe	Secondary Scoring Creator	36.1	High	20.9	4.2	3.5	1.8	14.7	Dynamic off‑ball scorer and slasher with a creative one‑on‑one attack; his “Pearl” scoring complemented Frazier’s distribution and forced defenses to adjust.	MVP‑16, All‑Star
Bill Bradley	Two‑Way Wing Facilitator	35.3	Medium‑High	13.3	3.2	3.1	1.1	10.4	Versatile wing who mixed scoring with ball movement and perimeter defense; often a “third option” that could stretch defenses. Known for basketball IQ and consistent production.	—
John Gianelli	Inside Presence/Big Man	35.0	Medium	10.3	8.6	2.0	2.0	11.5	Provided stable interior rebounding and finishing around the rim; bullies smaller defenders and helped set screens that freed perimeter creators.	—
Phil Jackson	Big Lineup Glue	29.3	Medium	10.8	7.7	1.7	1.8	10.5	Skilled frontcourt role that balanced rebounding with smart passing and high basketball IQ; seldom a focal scorer but important spacing/rotations.	—
