Michael Jordan could play everything at his prime,
okay the center jordan might not be the greatest but not a bad one.

magic is a no brainer yeah..

KG maybe.. i'm pretty sure he can play 2-5 .. just a little doubtful at the point though.. altho he does have good ball handling skills for a big man..

scottie pippen in his prime was a great versatile player.. he could easily play the 1-4 spots.. not so sure about the 5 tho

Magic, and to a lesser extent Pippen and KG. Pippen can/could play well at all positions except centre, while KG can play at guard but is more reliable at the frontcourt positions.

acutally Tim Thomas isn't that well of a ball handler...Pipen and Jordan can both playmake...they have althleticsism..and great rebounding ability...it isn't about the height it's about the skill...

True Tim Thomas can't go a game without traveling at least twice...Imagine if he played the point, he'd lead the league in turnovers.

Carmelo Anthony. I'm not sure if he can play center. Maybe Lebron.

They don't have the size or strength to play significant minutes at centre. They could probably play the role of a centre in certain offensive sets though.

I think Dirk could play all 5 positions, he has proven he can play center, power forward, small forward and shooting guard, only point guard is a question, but he could, he is fast, has good shot range, can handle the ball very well for a big man, so I think he could play point guard but i doubt he will.
And i don't remember watching him play much(on vintage) but couldn't elgin baylor play all 5 positions? I am not sure....
