Small Forwards
Carmelo Anthony really busted out last season averaging 26.5 points, 4.9 rebounds and 2.7 assists. Anthony is an offensive player, plain and simple. Anthony is a great finisher is transition and he’s also a great one-on-one player. Carmelo needs to get better at rebounding and defense, but the sky’s the limit on offense for him. For his career, Anthony has averaged 22.8 points, 5.6 rebounds, 2.7 assists and 1.1 steals per game.
Eduardo Najera is a great hustle player off of the bench. Najera also could play power forward in a pinch. Eduardo has averaged 5.1 points & 4.1 rebounds per game over his career, but the thought here is that he could do real well with extended minutes.
Linas Kleiza is the #3 small forward for the Nuggets. Linas plays hard, but he’s a little over-matched on the defensive end by other teams’ small forwards. Kleiza has averaged 3.5 points & 1.9 rebounds per game over his career.
