Who is the most athletic PF ever?

[BigGargamel]

Dominique Wilkins. He's not called the "Human Highlight Film" for nothing. I guess most consider him a SF, but he'd be a PF in today's game.

But he wasn't a PF at all, so he's not in consideration.

Zion, especially Duke version.

[gavran]

90s Voshon Kemp
00 Stromile
10 Griffin
20 Giannis

Watch on YouTube

Was that someone's younger brother?

[sisibilio]

Tyrus Thomas

[Lalouie]

sidney wicks was a pf i feel

he wasnt no sf, that's for sure

he had all the boxes checked and that was back on the 70s. there was no one like him back then. pf's were lumbering like elvin hayes. wicks had lightning athleticism in a 6'8/230 body,,, and he was a 3 or 4 position player when other pf's were one dimensional

and wicks blocked gilmore 6x in the ncaa championship.
also a 22' long jumper in hs

Forgot about Josh Smith. Strong candidate for this. Got by on sheer athleticism, but that may have been the one of worst IQ player I’ve ever seen play.

Will always associate him with this haha.

Eh, don't really think so, but he didn't actually play PF, so working him in by saying he'd be a PF not doesn't really track, lol

Good try though I guess

Tried to look up Sydney Wicks, but found this: "All 5 Dunks from the 1975 NBA All-Star Game"

[LockoutSeason]

Zion.

[Raptors_Dynasty]

Stromile Swift

[jbsays]

Barkley didn't instantly come to mind. But, after reading this thread I will go with him based on what he was able to do at PF position at only 6'4-6'5. Kemp, Griffin, and other guys mentioned in this thread are all 6'9+.

[Chokic]

Zion Williamson easily. I'd even argue hes the most athletic player in nba history. Never seen a player with his size strength straightline and lateral quickness agility vertical explosiveness off 1 and 2 feet.

[Dan33185]

Durant?

[dirkdiggler4177]

As always with these threads, define athletic

[Crazy-Canuck]

Stromile Swift

Power, agility, hang time, etc..

[Magic_Johnny12]

I’m honestly astonished the lack of mention of Amare Stoudamire.

Top-3 quite easily.

[Lalouie]

As always with these threads, define athletic

well, to some, it's the most athletic FAT GUY PF ever

to others it's the best dunking pf ever

[Kingdibs19]

Lebron and it’s not even close

[Optms]

Amare came into the league literally posterizing anything that moved. Even peak Tim Duncan couldn't slow him down. Check the numbers and footage. Real ones haven't forgotten.
