    He just makes the cut of 15 years (retired in '03). But honestly, I've never seen this guy play live, I'm just looking at the stats.

    Kevin Garnett comes to mind, he was a freak coming into the league

    Shaq is probably one of the most athletic person I've watched at 7'3, and he also managed to have a incredibly long career despite his weight gain mid career

    Also, Webber might qualify.

    He was a beast and amazingly athletic in his younger (pre 1998) days. The substance abuse and weight gain was more of a issue for him than injuries.

    He's the only one, I can think of, besides Robinson and Malone. We could say Charles Barkley who was a bit on the heavier side, but was athletic like a guard. He didn't have injury issues until later in his career.

    jordann - Dwight? -- I agree, as well.
