physical, high-motor frontcourt piece with real rebounding juice
Uche Echefu was a strong, athletic Florida State forward who arrived as a highly regarded recruit and was praised for his body, competitiveness, floor-running ability, and knack for helping on the glass. In the 2006-07 season, he averaged 6.9 points and 4.3 rebounds per game for Florida State, showing a useful face-up touch and reliable free-throw shooting for a big man. The fit question: if you want size, toughness, and hustle in the frontcourt, he’s your guy; if you need a pure stretch scorer, that’s not his lane.
