Analysis

Singler, coming off 2 solid seasons as a power forward, has had a tough time adjusting to the small forward position this season. On offense, Singler has developed a good post game, but he seems unsure when playing out on the perimeter. He has good range on his perimeter shots, though his shot selection could use some work. Defensively, Singler has good size to cover other small forwards, though his foot speed could use some work. He is a good rebounder and works hard to get good position. As Singler becomes more comfortable on the perimeter, he will improve his ability to be an NBA player.
