Ryan Anderson | Power Forward | California
Class: Junior Height: 6'10 Weight: 240lbs High School: Oakridge High Hometown: El Dorado Hills, CA College Stats |
Strengths: Anderson is an NBA quality PF when it comes to scoring ability. He is able to score from anywhere on the floor, and drive and kick when his shot isn't there. He has a great understanding of the game, and a high IQ. Anderson is one of the best at his position when it comes to FT% at a shade over 85%. At the college level Anderson was a good rebounder, and an excellent 3pt shooter. He can either play the PF or SF positions with ease in the NBA.
Weaknesses: Anderson lacks quickness, and foot speed. Not sure how this will affect him at the next level, but it's bound to in some fashion. Although a good rebounder in college his lack of strength playing the PF position might play with his ability to get position against stronger players. He wouldn't be able to out-jump many players if he was not in position to get a rebound. Defensively either at PF or SF Anderson would give away easy drives to the basket if a player got Anderson too close to the hoop. Anderson lacks lateral quickness so he wont be an imposing defender in the post.
