Power Forward

What is Power Forward?


1.

A basketball player also noted as a "4" or "PF". They are commonly large players tasked with playing in the low post to grab rebounds, block shots, score and/or defend.

However, the typical power forward has evolved into being a more well-rounded player who is not only capable of the aforementioned duties but also able to shoot a midrange jumper, pass and/or defend attackers at the wing.

Many power forwards can also play the "Center" or "Small Forward" position.

Some of the NBA's greatest power forwards: Karl Malone, Kevin Garnett, Tim Duncan, Charles Barkley, Kevin McHale and Wes Unseld
