Chris Walker NBA Draft Scouting Report

NBA Draft Prospect Chris Walker

6-9 – Combo Forward – Florida

A rare athlete with a high motor and exceptional physical tools.

Pros

High energy player with a nose for the basketball. Excels on the fast break and at getting garbage buckets.

Is a great leaper with long arms, allowing him to play above the rim. A great dunker and has a knack for scoring at the rim.  Rebounds the ball well and is always looking to crash the offensive glass.

Has exceptional quickness in the open floor and is too fast and too explosive for most opposing forwards to handle.

Cons
Doesn’t have a true NBA position, lacking the power to bang inside and (so far) lacking the skills to excel on the perimeter at the next level.

Projection: lottery to mid first round pick in the 2014 or 2015 NBA Draft.
