No. 10 Portland Trail Blazers- Robert Williams (Texas A&M, FR, Power Forward)

The Blazers have been one of the more disappointing teams this season. A big part of the blame is their lack of defense and rebounding. Robert Williams of Texas A&M is an absolute monster with a 7-foot-4 wingspan and great rim protection (averaging 2.5 BPG).

Williams has incredible athleticism and a tremendous motor that brings high energy when crashing the boards. His offense is still raw, but the upside is there. The intensity and abilities to do the dirty work is exactly what Portland is in need of.

After losing Mason Plumlee at the NBA Trade Deadline, this might be a match made in NBA heaven.
