Who is the weakest player in the NBA? 

Post#1 » by TheNG » Wed Jan 20, 2021 6:24 pm

Who is the weakest player in the NBA? I'm not talking about basketball but about pure strength.
Another question: if all players would enter a 1 on 1 fighting tournament, who would lose the most?

Per height, probably KD.

Has to be Trae Young for both questions. He has the frame and body of a masculine lesbian. He would probably get dropped by the average RealGM keyboard warrior.

This post has been dealt with. Please do not respond.

DeAndre Jordan. He can't even hit the rim with his free throws.

according to that link above, Trae isn't on the list of guys who couldn't bench 185 at the combine so you're wrong.

Lamelo Ball was the first person to come to mind. He’s almost comically thin when I look at him. Naturally, I’m sure he’ll fit out a bit though. Trae Young is a good mention also.

I think KD’s stronger than one would think. He didn’t get much larger throughout his career but he looks to have a wiry strong build.

Right now I'd say Poku or possibly LaMelo even, as good as he is he's got no muscle or weight on his frame. Makes sense as they're 2 of the youngest dudes in the league

I know people want it to be Trae Young, but that's clearly not the case just based off the link.

Corey Brewer - 6'9" 180lbs.....

A 6'9" guy who grabbed less than 3 rebounds a game because most point guards could box him out.

I'm actually sort of surprised that Trae got 185 up, but that isn't the end all be all of strength. Leg strength, back strength, arm strength, etc all come into play and while Trae might have had a slightly stronger chest than some of those guys, he could have been weaker elsewhere.

Not sure what he did at the combine but by just seeing him in person, Malik Monk. Super slim shoulders and frame
