Aaron Gordon Expects To Play Small Forward At Arizona

Wed, 29 May 2013 19:43:16 EDT

Aaron Gordon expects to primarily play at small forward for Arizona this season, though he appears to be best suited at power forward on the college level.

Gordon's position in the NBA remains unclear, though he could certainly play minutes at both positions due to how power forwards are evolving.

“As of right now I plan on playing on the wing full time,” Gordon told Jason Scheer of Wildcat Authority. “There will obviously be some times where I’ve got to go down in the post and go to work, but the plan is for me to play on the perimeter, which makes sense when you have players like Brandon (Ashley) and Kaleb (Tarczewski) in the low post. A lot of my training has been done with that in mind. I’ve always been able to dribble pretty well, so I’ve continued to work on that along with becoming a more consistent shooter.”
