Scouting Reports

Marcus Fizer is a slasher. He has a nice perimeter shot and is deadly around the hoop. He will be a good NBA player and would be a good fit with Vancouver.

Marcus Fizer is the best player in this years NBA Draft.  When all is said and done Fizer will be head and shoulders above Kenyon Martin.  He is the complete package.  I see him scoring 22 ppg and grabbing 12 rebounds a game in a few years.

Fizer has been compared to Karl Malone because of his ability to get his shot off quicker and more accurate than any other power forward in college. He is also powerfully built, and although some have listed him anywhere from 6'5" to 6'8", his incredible strength will allow him to compete with other NBA forwards.  He has great range on his jump shot and is quick enough to play the small forward position. His defense was very suspect last year, but he improved it greatly this year. He might have trouble guarding taller post players, but has had a great work ethic throughout his career. His play resembles Glenn Robinson more than any other player.

Marrcus Fizer is a great all around player! For a 6'8 forward he can handle the ball ,play defense, and he can shoot the ball. Look for him to go in the top five.

I like his all around game a lot, but I think there's a question about where he'll play in the NBA.  He's a litle short for PF and not quick enough to play SF - he could have real defensive problems. Corliss Williamson comes to mind, but he could be more than that.  His move up to 35% on threes is a good sign.
