Philip Dejworek brings old-school post toughness and surprising shooting touch
In the 2000-01 season, Philip Dejworek was a reliable frontcourt scorer for Portland, averaging 7.7 points and 2.8 rebounds while shooting 46.4% from the field, with a reputation for low-post moves and enough range to hit 28 career threes. His game stands out because he could score inside, stretch defenses, and chip in on the glass without needing heavy volume; earlier Portland notes also describe him as a bench weapon who could pop for big nights, including a 19-point outing with five made threes. If you want a skilled, versatile big rather than a pure rim-runner, he fits the bill.
