LA Clippers’ Sam Dekker is the blueprint for the future NBA small forward

The small forward position is arguably the most versatile. Some small’s can shoot, some can’t. Some can dunk with ease, and some prefer to just lay it up. Some don’t even average more than one basket per game, and are more of a defensive asset. Much like every position in the modern era of basketball, this position is changing, and the LA Clippers’ Sam Dekker is at the front of the wave.

Dekker’s background

Sam Dekker played ball for the University of Wisconsin and was drafted 18th overall in the 2015 NBA draft by the Houston Rockets.
