2013 NBA Draft Scouting Report: Steven Adams
Position: Center
Size: 7-0, 250
School: Pittsburgh, Freshman
Strengths:
Weaknesses:
Summary: Adams is nowhere near NBA ready, but because he has 17 siblings, his journey to the NBA was accelerated. Adams’ size and mobility for a seven-footer will be attractive to NBA scouts who are willing to wait a couple years for his development. More than likely, he falls somewhere in the late teens to late first round depending on which team is willing to gamble on his potential.
Player Comparison: Zaza Pachulia. Pachulia has put together a steady career as a backup NBA big man due to his size and effectiveness down low. Adams has more upside than Pachulia, but until Adams puts it all together, he projects to be a big body inside to take up space and occassionally show signs of life.
