Amir Johnson(#25) Height: 6-9 Weight: 210 lbs. Position: Power Forward and Small Forward Born: May 1, 1987 in Los Angeles, California Age Drafted: 18 College:  Source: Basketball Reference

Strengths

Active and athletic PF who uses his quickness and leaping ability to make up for a lack of bulk/strength. Although he is a limited offensive player he is quite efficient due to limiting most of his attempts to put backs, dunks and transition buckets (.573) Has worked hard on a three point shot and shoots a solid percentage (.340) on a limited number of attempts (about 0.5 per game last two seasons). Hard worker who has continually improved since he made the NBA. Is an excellent offensive rebounder averaging 3.4 per 36 for career and is a solid defensive rebounder. Can guard effectively in the post and on the perimeter.

Weaknesses

Not particularly strong for a big forward/lacks bulk. Despite having an okay three point shot is not a great jump shooter or FT shooter (.688) but can knock down the occasional jumper. Does not get to the line very often. Is not much of a passer (1.1 apg for career) and although he impacts many shots he isn't a big time shot blocker (1.1 per game)

Notes

2005 McDonald's All American, Drafted by the Detroit Pistons in the 2nd round (56th pick) of the 2005 NBA Draft, 4 times in the top 10 in personal fouls. Prep to Pro. Came into the pros very raw.

Strengths

Athletic for his size (NBA.com has him listed at 240lbs, a more accurate weight then basketball-reference.com). Solid defender, solid rebounder, solid shot blocker, but not exceptional. Decent FT shooter (70% career). Developed a 3pt shot later in his career. Above average on the offensive glass.

Weaknesses

Not a scorer (7.6PPG career). Never played enough to post great rebounding or blocked shot numbers, but his per-36 mins numbers are good.

Notes

Came in raw at 18 but turned into a solid big athletic bench player.
