The Bobcats look solid at small forward for this season. 27-year old Gerald Wallace is the starter and he is solid at both ends of the basketball court for the Bobcats as he plays all-out all of the time. He played in 71 games for the Bobcats last season and he averaged 37.6 minutes, 16.6 points, 7.8 rebounds, 2.7 assists and 1.7 steals per game. The only weakness in Wallace’s game is that he is a tad injury prone but that is due to his playing style and the Bobcats aren’t about to ask him to change how he plays the game. 28-year old Vladimir Radmanovic will back up Wallace this season. He played in 78 games for the Bobcats & Lakers last season in which he averaged 18.5 minutes, 6.9 points, 2.8 rebounds and 1.0 assist per game. Radmanovic is a much softer player than Wallace and he only really plays hard at the offensive end of the court. 27-year old Stephen Graham will likely be the #3 small forward this season for the Bobcats. He played in 52 games for the Pacers last season and he averaged 13.2 minutes, 5.4 points, 1.8 rebounds and 0.6 assists per game.
