Tahukah Anda?
Gafford shoots over 70% from the field for his career — placing him among the most efficient big men in NBA history on a shot-for-shot basis.
He grew up in El Dorado, Arkansas — the same small city that has produced several notable professional athletes, cementing its reputation as a hidden sports talent hub.
His combination with Dereck Lively II gives Dallas two of the most physically imposing centers in a shared rotation — an unusual luxury for a Western Conference team.
Despite being a second-round pick, Gafford has consistently outperformed first-round centers of his draft class, becoming one of the best examples of late-round value in recent NBA history.
