Patrick Dwyer is a financial advisor in Miami, and a huge Hurricanes fan. Every time the football and basketball teams of the U are playing, he has the volume turned way up. The other week, he had some visitors at home. Dwyer had them watch a video of the best basketball moments of the Hurricanes. He was surprised that one of his visitors had no idea about basketball. Dwyer then realized that many people who are fans of university teams aren’t familiar with some of the sports at all.
On that note, Patrick Dwyer would want to share a few notes on the basic positions of basketball for those looking to cheer for their favorite teams.
Point Guard
The PG is the offensive leader of the team. He orchestrates the offense and brings the plays of the coach to life.
Shooting Guard
The SG completes the back court of a team. He should be reliable on both offense and defense.
Small Forward
The SF can be switched with the SG at times. Also known as the “swing man,” SFs are traditionally great at offense. Today though, SFs are multi-threats.
Power Forward
On offense, PFs work down low on the post to score. He also aids the Center in rebounding. Many PFs also double as Centers because of their size.
Center
Many of Patrick Dwyer’s favorite players are centers. They are usually the biggest players on their team and stay close to the basket both on offense and defense.
