Wilson Chandler (DEN) – “Ill Will”

Profile:
Shooting Guard/Small Forward: 6’8, 225 lbs; 10th year, DePaul
NBA Role: versatile, scoring forward • Hybrid
Tatted-up Wilson Chandler is a dangerous wing scorer when healthy; booed by Knicks fans during the 2007 Draft (because, of course), Chandler’s experienced a long career as a tough, two-way forward; loves to run, gun, & fill it up in the Rockies; forceful rim driver but doesn’t get too hyped after big plays – Wilson’s a gamer; shot selection leaves a lot to be desired – has a habit of passing up simple looks for contested ones & settles for too many long jumpers; one of DEN’s top perimeter defenders, Wilson draws defensive assignments on the NBA’s first-rate scorers; usually coveted at the trade deadline*; missed the 2015-16 season with a hip injury – avg. at over 15/night (off the bench) in 2016-17: comeback SZN
*ahh, the SF everyone seems to whisper about but can never pull the trigger on since he’s been injured
Signature Move: ‘attack the closeout’ • driving dunk
