UNLV’s ultra-efficient, high-upside, power-forward force
In the 2012-13 season at UNLV, Anthony Bennett was a bucket-getting forward who averaged 16.1 points and 8.1 rebounds in just 27.1 minutes, while shooting 53.3% from the field and 37.5% from three[1][8]. His calling card was NBA-ready physicality: a compact, strong frame, scoring versatility, and the ability to punish matchups inside or stretch the floor[13]. The caution flag was availability, since injuries limited his workload and his college production came in a relatively short burst. If your team wants an efficient, power-based forward with real scoring pop, he’s intriguing; if you need a long-term engine with elite durability, that’s the question mark[1][13].
