2013 NBA Draft: Detroit Pistons Draft Prospects Forwards

Otto Porter – Power Forward – Georgetown

Porter is an elite defender and can shoot the rock. He is also talented on the offensive end espcially in transisition.

NBA Draft net says this about his motor:

"He’s in constant motion away from the ball, roaming the baseline, cutting backdoor or settling into soft spots. Utilizes that same motor to get out in the open court and runs exceedingly well end to end; averages 1.45 PPP in transition. Plays to his strengths and works hard to ameliorate areas of weakness. He upped his scoring output from 9.7 as a freshman to 16.2 as a sophomore (48% FG). The key ingredient to his offensive explosion was improved long-range proficiency, from 23% to 42% (12 makes to 43). 51% adjusted FG% in spot up opportunities."

The Pistons are looking for offense from this pick. However, Porter is considered the #1 power forward in the draft and on the off-chance he will fall to the Pistons they won’t pass on him.
