3. Bobby Portis, PF, Arkansas
Bobby Portis is a 6’11,” 245-pound product out of the University of Arkansas. He is projected to be a mid first-round draft pick.
An NBA player comparison is perhaps David West of the Indiana Pacers. West is shorter at 6’9,” but Portis possesses a very similar game to that of the Pacers power forward. He’s a great face-up player and is incredibly tough to guard when he drives to the paint. He also relies heavily upon his mid-range game.
While he has a polished offensive game on jump shots, he leaves a lot to be desired when it comes to a post-up game. Portis will be a nice addition for many NBA teams but Miami has better options elsewhere in the draft.
