Scouting Report:
A
fantastic rebounder who also has a decent handle with the ball. Can
score proficiently in the paint and has a decent jump shot.
Strengths:
Rebounding. Withers is a beast on the boards. 15 plus rebound games
are not a rare thing for him to put up. Good scoring in the post and he
also is a decent dribbler. Decent jump shooter with range back behind
the arc.
Weaknesses:
Turnover prone. Averages anywhere from 3-4 turnovers per game – not
what you are looking for from a post player. He is also is an
inconsistent scorer, running off multiple games in a row with single
digit scoring numbers.
Projected 2006 Draft
Range:
Late second round
Consensus:
Withers strong
physique and rebounding skills will get him a few looks from NBA teams.
However he is far too turnover prone and inconsistent offensively right
now to be considered a lock for a NBA job in the fall.
