Rebounding center who can protect basket and finish short bank shots in paint, Limited feel for game offensively. Poor foul shooter. A bit undersized for 5,Strong and a good athlete, but gets shot blocked with shocking frequency.
Okafor's control of the glass remains his strongest attribute, he was 14th among centers in rebound rate but he also stepped up with a 57.3 percent mark from the floor. Many of those came on gift-wrapped feeds from Chris Paul, as he shot 69.8 percent in the basket area. But it also helps that he won't take a bad shot, as more than 90 percent of his shots came within 10 feet of the cup. Okafor could help himself even more if he'd practice his free throws -- he shot under 60 percent for the fifth straight season, submarining a strong free throw rate.
He was a shot blocking machine in college averaging like 4.2 blocks his final season.
