Who are 2023’s Most Underrated Power Forwards?

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The big men for the 2023 class have all done excellent things this season. While there may not be as many power forwards in this class as in other positions, there are still lots of exciting talent to be had in this class. That said, here are my five underrated power forwards for the 2023 class and why I feel they should get more recognition for how great these players are.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1150273"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"Eaves is an all-around do-everything kind of power forward. His averages of scoring over nineteen points while grabbing ten rebounds a game make him a force to be reckoned with. Eaves does most of his scoring down low in the paint using many different post moves but favors the drop step moves to get around defenders. However, he will make the defense pay if you leave him open from behind the arc. Eaves can even put the ball on the floor and finish strong at the rim making him very difficult to guard.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_player":["1206526"],"_player_evaluations_1_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"Aririguzoh is a great finisher around the rim and can score with both hands very well. He has a nice floater/post hook he likes to use when he is down low which makes it almost impossible for other big men to guard because of how fast he gets his shot off. Aririguzoh can knock down the open three and is not afraid to take charge leading to more opportunities for his team. A willing passer too as he is always looking for dive-cutting teammates for easy points for his team. Aririguzoh is also excellent at contesting shots.","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_player":["1269811"],"_player_evaluations_2_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_2_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_2_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"Thomas mainly does his damage down low in the post/painted area as he uses his strength to overpower anyone who dares to challenge him in that area. He finishes nice at the rim using the turn-around hook shot having a soft touch around the rim guaranteeing he will always score inside. A ferocious rebounder also as he will never quit on an opportunity to go after them. Thomas's shot-blocking ability makes sure he will send your shot into the bleachers whenever you try to test him. Finally, if you give him the open look from three Thomas will knock it down with no hesitation.","_player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_3_player":["1544343"],"_player_evaluations_3_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_3_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_3_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"Shannon is primarily in the paint when it comes to the offensive side of the ball and will stop at nothing to score down low. He's a double-double machine and grabs every rebound in his sight. Shannon's finishing ability around the rim allows him to score over anyone and through any kind of contact thrown his way. He will block your shot if you try to drive on him or contest your shot making it tough to score on him. He plays more center than power forward because of his tall frame and won't step out to the midrange or three-pointed area for jump shots.","_player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_4_player":["1484345"],"_player_evaluations_4_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_4_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_4_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_4_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_4_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"Hyde is your modern-day stretch four that every team would love to have. His ability to shoot from deep allows the defense to become more spread out allowing for more driving opportunities for his teammates. He can finish at the rim and through contact using his long wingspan. Hyde even has sneaky athletism which allows for him to block and contest multiple shots. Not to mention Hyde can put the ball on the floor and moves laterally very well against perimeter defenders making him a swiss army knife type of player with how he can do everything for his team.","_player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":5,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-63fd518d42b16"} /-->
