Michigan big man turned pro who brought size, rebounding, and interior activity
Courtney Sims was a 6-11 frontcourt player at Michigan who averaged 10.9 points, 5.7 rebounds, and 1.4 blocks in the 2006-07 season, then carried that rim-protecting, rebound-cleaning profile into a pro career. His NBA minutes were brief, with career averages of 1.2 points and 1.2 rebounds in five games, but his developmental value was his size, shot-blocking, and ability to finish around the rim rather than high-usage scoring. For a team, he fit as a low-maintenance interior presence who could anchor second-unit minutes if you needed size and defensive length.[6][13][4]
