Chicago Bulls: Profile on rookie big man Daniel Gafford

A two-year big out of Arkansas, Daniel Gafford stands 6-foot-11 and boasts a 7-foot-1 wing span. Weighing in prior to the draft at around 240 pounds, Gafford will look to add to his NBA ready frame so he can defend centre’s at the highest level. Still only 20 years old, he has strong fundamentals that could make him an excellent rim runner in the NBA with the Chicago Bulls.

Offensive Game

In his time at Arkansas, Gafford was a prime lob threat on the offensive end. With a strong eye for the rim, he led the South-Eastern conference in field goal percentage.
