2012 NBA Draft Scouting Report: Kevin Jones
Position: Power Forward
Size: 6-8, 260
School: West Virginia, Senior
Strengths:
Weaknesses:
Summary: Jones has several attributes that will translate well to the NBA. He is a relentless rebounder and can stretch defenses with his outside shot. However, he is a bit undersized to be a power forward at the next level, which holds him back a bit. Still, he could be seen as a solid NBA role player and could sneak into the first round.
Player Comparison: Udonis Haslem. Like Jones, Haslem is only 6-8, but has carved out a niche throughout his career as a strong rebounder and solid mid-range shooter. Neither player is going to “wow” you athleticially, but they both just understand how to outwork people and use their strengths to their advantage.
