Power forward (Front Court Position) The power forward, also referred to as the 'four', usually plays on the opposite side of the key from the center, and is frequently able to double as a center. Power forwards are a little more mobile than centers, which helps them set many plays up on the court. Most power forwards are able to shoot mid range shots, ranging no more than ten to 15 feet away from the basket. Power forwards usually tend to be robustly built.

Small forward (Front Court Position) The small forward, or the 'three', is the most versatile of the five starters, simply because they can do it all: handle the ball, play in the post, and score whenever needed. They are not as physical as power forwards and centers. Rather, they generally take more outside shots but can move inside when they need to.. Small forwards can substitute for any player on the court other than the point guard, because they usually cannot control the ball as well as the point guard. source: wikipedia.org GNU Free Documentation License
