Alonzo Mourning (1993-2008)
Over the course of his 15 years in the NBA, ‘Zo Mourning scored an average of 4.4 blocks per 48 minutes played. This is the fifth-highest record among the centers in the league. With this mark, we can see why he was a two-time NBA Defensive Player of the Year and chosen for the All-Defensive first team twice. He was not just great at defense since he averaged 17.1 points and 8.5 rebounds per game too! Sadly, this took a hit during his final years on the paint as he got a kidney transplant in 2003. He was a seven-time All-Star pick and won the 2006 title with Miami. Three years later, they retired his jersey number.
