Hakim Warrick

Hakim Hanif Warrick (born July 8, 1982) is an American professional basketball player who currently plays for the Charlotte Bobcats of the NBA. Commonly nicknamed "Helicopter" and "Skinny", the 6'9", 219 lb power forward was a major part the Syracuse Orange's run to the 2003 National Championship, often being most remembered for blocking a potential game-tying 3-pointer in the title game. Warrick also has a reputation as a prolific dunker while also possessing a wide arsenal of low-post moves.

Warrick was taken with the 19th pick in the 2005 NBA Draft, and after being used sparingly his first season, he had a breakout second year by more than tripling his scoring output and doubling his rebounds.
