Robert Baker brings Harvard a long, versatile frontcourt presence
Robert Baker is a 6-foot-10 Harvard product whose value comes from length, rebounding, rim protection and a polished enough offensive game to stay playable on both ends; as a senior at Harvard he averaged 7.0 points, 5.3 rebounds and 1.4 blocks, then carried that two-way profile into pro basketball. He’s the kind of forward coaches like because he can defend multiple spots, finish around the rim and do the dirty work without needing touches, which makes him a strong fit for teams that want size, effort and low-drama reliability more than high-usage scoring.
