NBA Comparisons:
|
Optimistic Outlook: Chris Webber |
Pessimistic Outlook: Kwame Brown (first year) |
Positives: Very athletic player who
loves to play above the rim. Extremely good agility
and quickness for a big man. Runs the floor well and
gets as high as any player with his combination of length
and hops. What makes Dwight Howard truly unique to the
other highschool athletic freaks is his exception ball
handling, passing, and shooting. Add those attributes
to his already great size, athleticism, speed and you
have a phenomenally great talent. Excellent rebounding
and shot blocking skills. Basically Howard is gifted
in almost every facet of the game.
Negatives: Could get stronger. Right
now he completely dominates the smaller players in highschool,
but once he gets into the NBA, he will have to face
bigger opponents. Still could improve his low post game.
In the post he plays like Amare Stoudemire (in his rookie
season), utilizing his athleticism to dominate his opponents
more than his skills and low post moves.
