Good ball handler who has no problem taking opposing defenders off the dribble. Great finisher around the basket as he is capable of making some impressive dunks on the break. Fundamentally sound player with a decent basketball IQ and court awareness. Rarely does Jianlian force the issue, instead he let’s the game come to him. Unlike many players his size, he is a great free throw shooter. Runs the floor especially well considering his size. His perimeter shooting is very impressive as he can stretch the defense out to 18-20 feet comfortably. While he doesn’t own many back to the basket moves, Jianlian possesses a consistent turnaround jumper in the post … Does a great job of using his long body and athleticism to make an impact on the boards … Passes out of double teams well due to his court vision and awareness. Excels in an open court offense that promotes fast breaks thanks to his mobility and leaping ability. Rarely gets intimidated when physical play occurs. Yi Jianlian goes to the Milwaukee Bucks with sixth pick in 2007 NBA Draft.
