Al Jefferson - Prentiss High School (MS.) - 6'10", 263 lbs. - PF
Jefferson scored a remarkable 42 points per game as a high school senior. …He can dunk in traffic. He gets wide, catches, and finishes. If he hits the weight room and fills out - his frame can be like Kevin Willis. ...Jefferson is a hard, dunker. Standing reach is 9' 2". …Tested with a 30" vertical at the NBA pre-draft camp. ...He did not fare well in strength testing. ...He was to attend Arkansas but chose the Association instead.
Jefferson will likely be picked somewhere near 20th. We think he is underrated, and should be selected ninth.
