Robert Swift - 7'1", 245 lb. - High School - Bakersfield, CA. - Center
Tall 18 year-old boy from Bakersfield, CA. has natural hoop instincts, and great size. Right handed. …Strong enough and big enough to carve out space. Getting stronger. Good footwork, and a finisher. He was a McDonald's High School All-American. His performance in the McDonald's game was impressive. Certainly, a risky pick. But the potential is there. During the summer of 2003 Swift was named one of the ten best players at the ABCD camp.
He seems destined for the mid-teens in the 2004 NBA draft. We'll go out on alimb and say he should be # 7.
