Strengths
Boozer is a terrific low post scorer who also has a solid outside jump shot that can stretch all the way to 18 feet or even further. He's a great rebounder as well. Hustles on defense and doesn't bite on the pump fake on defense. All around solid defender.
Weakness
Scout's question if he's the product of playing with two top 10 picks and thus he's only putting up good numbers because of those around him. His potential is also in question as scout's are not too sure he's maxed out. Bigger player for a forward and there is some concern about his lateral speed and quickness to keep up with the faster forwards.
[/u]Scout's Take[/u]
Boozer came back to college to prove scouts wrong and he wasn't a product of Jay Williams' success and that he could lead a team on his own. He certainly did that as he averaged an amazing 30 ppg while also getting 15 rpg. Boozer also flashed a better outside game while also shedding some weight and cutting himself up. Boozer stayed a year when people told him he shouldn't and proved it was worth it. Boozer should fight for the #1 selection
