Pro: Jonathan Isaac’s length
One of the biggest upsides for Jonathan Isaac is his impressive size for his position.
Per DraftExpress, he’s 6′-foot-11 with a 7-foot-1¼ -inch wingspan. His standing reach is also an impressive 9 feet ½ inches.
Kevin Durant had a similar build on draft day; he was 6-foot-10 with a wingspan of 7-foot-4 ¾-inches and a standing reach of 9 feet 2 inches.
The key difference between the two players is weight. While Durant was considered skinny at 215 (and is still considered skinny at 240), Isaac is ten pounds lighter than Durant was at 205.
Despite his frame being relatively small compared to the bigs of the NCAA, Isaac is a great rebounder. Through his freshman year as a Seminole, he averaged 7.8 rebounds.

Isaac has proven himself willing to go body to body in order to secure rebounds. He is unafraid to fight for rebounds in traffic and willing to go body to body with guys a lot bigger than him.
This, of course, has to be taken with a grain of salt. The bodies in the NBA are a lot more developed than the bodies in the NCAA.
Isaac can also use his length to guard multiple positions. He should be able to at least play the three and the four at the NBA level, causing matchup problems wherever he goes.
Hopefully, as time goes on, Isaac will be able to add on some of that weight and guard other positions as a result.
