13 Joakim Noah C 6'11" - 232lbs, Feb 25, 1985 College: Florida
The ninth pick from the 2007 draft had a trying rookie season. He averaged 6.6 points a game, 5.7 rebounds,
and .9 blocks in a little over 20 minutes a game. Toward the end of the season when the pressure was off because of the
midseason trade, Noah started paying dividend for the Chicago Bulls. He scored in double digits in 10 of the final 14
games and began to hit double digits on the boards.
Noah was never going to be the scoring savior in the low post, but he can rebound, run, pass, and hustle. At times he threw down
emphatic dunks, even sometimes taking his man off the dribble. Once you get passed the crazy hair, Noah may turn out to be a
valuable player on the defensive end, although only with a great deal of work in the weight room over the offseason.
