Never thought we would see anybody be an offensive force like Wilt ever again, but maybe Jokic just surpassed him?

Who is the better offensive player?

Massive Wilt fan here, it's Jokic and it's not close.

Jokic clearly

He's the best offensive center of all time

Little correction

If this just said "scorer," it might be more competitive but Jokic's passing is so creative for a big that it takes his offensive value to an amazing level. The main case for Wilt as an offensive catalyst is his gravity as teams doubled and triple teamed him during his high scoring years but his passing didn't succeed in making them pay enough to create extra value for his teammates to the same extent that Jokic does.

I like this response.

Wilt was a demon of a scorer. Didn't have the range or variety, but it didn't matter as much because of his incredible physical advantages. But the passing is a big gap. A big, big gap. And the range does make a difference, as does competence at the foul line.

Still worth mentioning that he's been retired for over 50 years, dead for over a quarter century, and there are vanishingly few challenges at his position.
