Howard’s versatile 6-9 interior piece brings rebounding and rim protection
Alphonso Leary is a true frontcourt anchor for Howard, offering size, board work, and shot-blocking upside that can help stabilize a team’s interior rotation. Early-career reports showed he could produce at a double-digit scoring and near-double-digit rebounding level, while his Howard/college profile points to a long, physical F/C who fits best as a paint-first defender and energy big. His value is less about flash and more about toughness, positional length, and doing the dirty work that winning teams need.
