Ignore his worst category (threes) and he's worth -0.16.
Availability is the whole story — a nagging back wrecked last year (down to 46 games), and our 47-game line refuses to pretend otherwise. Upright, he's still a 70% FG, rebound-and-block anchor with zero threes and rough FT. An efficient punt-FT%/punt-3s center, but you're drafting a question mark on his back.
Jakob Poeltl enters 2026-27 at #127 on our board — Round 11 value in a standard 12-team draft, projected for 10.5 points, 7.1 rebounds and 2.1 assists in 24.7 minutes a night. The value is built on field-goal percentage and turnovers, with threes the soft spot in the profile. He's a natural fit for punt-threes builds — take that category out of the equation and his value climbs. Availability is the swing factor — we expect about 47 games, which is priced into his draft value.
