Gary Payton II is one of the most physically imposing point guard prospects in recent NBA Draft history. He has an absolutely absurd body fat percentage of 3.95, which makes him the only player in this draft class below 4.30 percent.

At 6’3″ with a 6’8″ wingspan and a 38.5-inch vertical, Payton II has positioned himself to be a late first-round draft pick.

Payton, who was named Pac-12 Defensive Player of the Year in both 2014 and 2015, has elite defensive potential. His 6’8″ wingspan is tremendous for a point guard, as is his muscular 184-pound frame.

By muscular, of course, I mean to say that Payton has the lowest body fat percentage of any prospect in this draft class at 3.95—a point worth reiterating.

From a physical perspective, the Oregon State Beavers star is one of the most imposing point guards in this draft class. He can’t shoot worth a lick, but he’s explosive in every sense of the word.

More hoops habit: Pending NBA free agents who need a change of scenery

Between his physical gifts, elite defensive potential, and the strength of his father’s name, Payton II could be a late first-round selection.
