Let's hope he also has a Dwight Howard-type jump from his rookie to sophomore season!!

His shoulders do get bigger looking at this video. I am excited and hope the lockout ends today!

I just got done looking at D. Favors picture on ESPN's ranking crap they're doing. I said to myself, "if he could gain 10-15 pounds, he could be deadly" at center or PF. Then I see he's been hitting the weights. Good news! I looked at his stats over the summer in comparison to Dwight Howard's, and they are comparable considering his playing time. Dwight started at PF when he came into the league and then made the transition to Center. Favors weighs 5 pounds more than Dwight in his rookie years, and Favor's measurements and stats are right on par with Howard's. Here are their post-allstar stats of their rookie seasons per 36. Let's commit to Favors and get him the minutes he needs.

DH: 15.5, 11.2, 1.1 ast, 1.2 st., 1.9 blk, 2.5 TO, 3.4 fls (33.7 actual minutes)
DF: 14.75, 9.4, 1.4 ast, .9 st., 2.15 blk, 1.8 TO, 5.2 fls (20.2 actual minutes)

Is that Big Al getting double stuffed like an Oreo at the start of that video?

Doesn't look or play anything like Al Jefferson.

Doesn't look or play anything like Al Jefferson.

It was a joke, he's obviously smaller than Al, but he does really move like Al - he's got that similar orangutan gait going on.

only 20 years old. any chance he's grown taller since last season?

 

[Beantown]

Stupid lockout.

 

[Dr. Jones]

typical off-season thread .. refreshing, since it's actually a lockout.

only 20 years old. any chance he's grown taller since last season?

Statistically its very rare. Would be awesome though.

Let's hope. Not that he's short by any means, but man, if he grows to 6'11 and actually fills out his frame like Dwight Howard, then he alone could make New Jersey regret the D-Will trade

Not that rare. I mean, he isn't going to grow anymore than an inch, but he could have easily put on 1/2 inch or something like that.

 

[spycam1]

Can I just say that after reading this news, I have more of an itch than EVER for the season to start...

 

[Darkwing Duck]

Not that rare. I mean, he isn't going to grow anymore than an inch, but he could have easily put on 1/2 inch or something like that.

So those pills DO work, then.

List of players with "Dwight Howard shoulders"
1) Dwight Howard

Also, not to be too much of a bummer but Dwight Howard is much more likely than Derrick Favors to have grown since they were measured.

After Favors gets in one more season, people will be saying Dwight Howard has shoulders like Derrick Favors.
