Name: Hasheem Thabeet
Height: 7'3"
Weight: 267 lbs
2nd overall pick in the 2009 NBA Draft
He's probably my 2nd favorite Rookie in the NBA after Blake Griffin.
I was really impressed with his performance in the NCAA Tournament last year after he averaged 13.8 ppg, 10.6 rpg, and 4.2 bpg.
Thabeet is one of the tallest player in the NBA, and I think he has the potential to lead the NBA in Shot Blocks in the near future.
