4. Montrezl Harrell, PF, Louisville
Montrezl Harrell is a 6’8,” 240-pound power forward out of the University of Louisville.
Harrell played three years with the Cardinals, having won a National Championship in 2013 as a freshman. The power forward averaged 15.7 points and 9.2 rebounds per contest in his senior season. He shot 56.6 percent from the field but shot just 59.7 from the free-throw line.
Harrell is your prototypical “garbage man.” He scores a lot of his points off alley-oops and lobs. He loves drawing fouls and initiating contact. Because many of his field goal attempts come from lobs and alley-oops, he converted on 65 percent from around the rim last year.
While he is a subpar free throw shooter, he did improve from his sophomore to his junior season. As a sophomore, he converted on just 46 percent of his free throw attempts.
He is a physical and aggressive role player who hustles. The question is, do the Heat really want to spend the No. 10 overall pick on a player of that caliber?
