My highlight mix about one of the greatest centers of all time - Arvydas Sabonis from Lithuania. This mix shows how great he was before injuries, then he was playing in USSR team. Footage from 1986 world basketball championship in Spain. Sabonis was playing against D.Robinson(USA) and S.Vrankovic/V.Divac(Yugoslavia).

  • Sabas recently suffered a heart attack, we wish him all good health! One of the greatest basketball players of our time!

  • @thabrandon yes you may be right but I was referring to him being the best pure center to ever play basketball period. Not NBA but world basketball. He never got to play in the NBA at his prime so that is an uncertain area.

  • Reading the comments, people make it seem like Robinson was a total bum against USSR and Sabonis.

  • true basketball legend.

  • In terms of all-around talent at the CENTER position, I would definitely put him in the top 5 of all time. Despite his youth, intelligence, and skill, and if he wasn't injury-prone, he still probably would have had his hands full against Olajuwon and O'Neal who just dominated the CENTER position in the 90s.

  • @ichirakudreamer "shaq for example blocks with 60 % a foul" huh.

  • @marzilyas i do know a lot about this subject . just in terms of 3 pointers , amazing passes and blocks he did in his prime isnt comparable to any other centre . shaq for example blocks with 60 % a foul .and he cant pass at all

  • ray liotta

  • His three pointers just kills. After some of those, opponents just lose ar the moral they have left :)

  • my opinion Sabonis = chamberlain

  • All CCCR team players were Lithuanians, and only becouse of occupation
