When the recruiting process started for Nate Roberts he was an incredibly skinny 6’7 small forward. Fast forward to this past August and Coach Hopkins described Roberts as being most similar in physique to Dwight Howard. That’s quite a progression in a short period of time and you can forgive Roberts for needing a redshirt year to get used to the extra few inches and the extra few pounds.
