6'8" and a half at 17, he should still end up around 6'10" by the time he's drafted, and he actually outplayed Jahlil in their matchup.


Amare was the same height when he came into the league.

I think he may be maxed out physically Malta. I don't think he's the athletic freak STAT was either in HS. But the best thing about Cliff is he embraces being a post player. You got guys like Myles Turner & Towns who want to be stretch 4's and it's disgusting.

Randle is a tweener because he can handle and shoot a little? 6'9" 250 is not a tweener just because dudes like Timmay have made a career out of claiming they are 6'11" forwards. 6'9" 250 and ability to play the post and rebound is exactly what a four is.

No, he wants to be a 3 that handles the rock and initiates the offense, that's what makes him a tweener.


Also, Terrence Jones is 6'9" 250lbs, handles the rock and shoots a little, he's called a tweener despite playing nothing but PF since coming into the league. While the shorter Paul Millsap is strictly a PF never to be confused with a tweener.

tweener is a description of being in between ideal size/agility/strength to play the positions defensively. Both have the size and strength to play their position defensively.
