2010 NBA Draft Scouting Report: Derrick Favors
Position: Power Forward
Size: 6-10, 245
School: Georgia Tech, Freshman
Strengths:
Weaknesses:
Summary: It is all about potential with Favors. He has been effective at Georgia Tech because his size and strength allows him to overpower opponents in the paint resulting in a lot of easy buckets. His overall game is still far from polished and needs a lot of work, but he has shown flashes of just how bright his future could be. He likely won’t slip out of the top five of the 2010 NBA Draft this summer.
Player Comparison: Al Jefferson. Like Jefferson was early in his career, Favors has the ability to overpower opponents in the paint with his great strength and physicality. It took a couple years for Jefferson to reach his potential in the league, and that will likely be the case for Favors.
