Power Forwards
1. Kevin Love C+ B- C- B- A- B
One of the top players in the class. After two seasons at UCLA, Love has established himself as one of the best players in college. In his sophomore season, Love put up 22ppg along with 14 rpg. Some feel he is more of a stretch four. Scouts think if he can work on his post game, he could have similar success as Bosh and Aldridge. Amazing rebounding skills. Great potential.
2. Tyler Hansbrough B C D+ B- B- C
Led the Tarheels to a national championship but also exposed his flaws. Like Love, Hansbrough is one of the best college players. But Hansbrough is a much more physical player. Scouts worry about his ability to handle the day to day pounding in a 82 game schedule. They also worry about the growth to his game. Not athletic & not much range to his game.
3. Taj Gibson C+ C- D+ B+ C+ B
Great defender with good potential to develop other areas in his game. High basketball IQ. If Taj can work on his post game and second chance points, you will have a great bigman on your team. Otherwise he's just a nice rotational big.
4. Jordan Hill C+ C- C C+ C+ A
Great potential. Can play either center or power forward. At Arizona, he left ranked fifth all-time in field goal percentage (57.8%). Showed he can play with the likes of Love and Hansbrough. If he can mature, Hill could turn out to be one of the best players in the class.
5. DeJuan Blair C+ C- C+ C- C A
Good passer who can score in the inside. Lacks in size and quickness. Probably the strongest player in the draft. Great heart but scouts worry if he has the mentality to last in the pros.
