EvenMoney’s NBA Draft 2011 – Top 10 Power Forwards, #4

 #4 – Gary Flowers

Gary Flowers is this draft’s small basketball school PF who is going to shock in the NBA. Flowers possesses the all-around offensive skills of a Small Forward and the rebounding and defensive acumen of an undersized PF.

We see Flowers as a guy who might get picked late in the second round or become a free agent camp invite for a team. That is when and where he will surprise people with his nearly Five-Tool skill set: three-pointer, rebounding, steals and blocks. The only thing currently lacking is the ability to consistently create scoring opportunities for other players.

Still not convinced? Ponder the stats below and press play!

Out of 138 players:
·        Gary Flowers would be a first round pick in 3 of the 4 metrics, but might be a late second round pick.
·        His lack of size at PF will push him to a tweener roler.
·        The small school, some-what lower first tier, second tier conference is the other knock.
·        Considered as a whole (BPM), as well as for each specialty (PCM for Production; DIR for Defense; and TPA (Talent/Skill-set).
