High End: Cam Johnson Low End: Justin Jackson/Tyler Lydon Median outcome: Georges Niang Pros: Shooting, off-ball scoring, rebounding, size, feel Cons: Athleticism, shot creation Verdict: Alex Karaban has been a proven weapon on multiple championship caliber teams, but his limitations are finally highlighted now that he is playing in a weaker roster. His role on an NBA team is clear as a movement shooter off the wing while also scoring off ball through his movement and cutting. Karaban rebounds quite well and also gets a lot of blocks because of his instinctual feel on defense. Other than that, Karaban should stand a chance against guarding wings with his frame, but his lateral quickness definitely prevents him from being an ideal 3&D wing.

Alex Karaban is a great shooter and smart forward for UConn. He spaces the floor well and helps winning but isnt super athletic or a big creator. Could be a solid rotation guy in the NBA late first or second round.
