Fantasy Basketball Draft Opinion Needed?

Heres the team so far;

Jason Kidd-PG

Yao Ming-C

Vince Carter-SG/SF

Carmelo Anthony-SF

Rasheed Wallace-PF

This is my first league with the following setup;

PG, SG, G, PF, SF, F, C, C, Util, Util

Never been in a double Center league and I didn't see it was until JUST now....which is frustrating for me to say the least.

Now I think I've had a decent draft thus far, opinions would be great on that as well, but now that I see its a double Center league I'm torn what to do. I was going to get another Guard, and was torn between;

Luol Deng--I know he has the talent

Tony Parker-Proven

Richard (Rip) Hamilton-Home town favorite for me and a hell of a player in my opinion.

But now I'm wondering if I should get my second center before I get hosed and have to wait 9 picks for my turn again. Centers I have the choice of;

Emeka Okafor

Ben Wallace

Tyson Chandler

All three have their ups and downs, I was pretty sure I needed to go with one of the Guards...input would be awesome.

Update:

I am now being told that due to a misprint in the last draft round (we're doing offline draft) Emeka Okafor is taken.

    I'd go with Okafor. Your team so far doesn't have a very good FG% and he should get a lot of opportunities for easy baskets, especially with May out for the year. Good centers are usually much tougher to find in later rounds/later in the year than guards who can fill in needed stats.

    Emeka Okafor...

    He will not score you the points that a G will, but was second in the league in blocks, and has an extremely high FG%. Two areas in which you do not have thus far..

    I would think Okafor too but the thing is he is very injury prone. Chandler is really good as of late and you are sure to get plenty of rebounds

    Just pick the next guy on the list. There's a forward on the Heat... Lebron something. He's pretty good.
