Positives
-Very fluid athlete, 6'7 with a 6'11 wingspan, moves smoothly on the court, extremely long
-Really high upside as a shot creator, very solid handle at his size, loves the crossover, favorite move is pulling up from the mid range off one or two dribbles, comfortable with the stepback, can shoot over defenders because of his length
-Definitely has potential as a shooter despite the bad shooting numbers although a bit streaky, shot it fairly well off the catch, has upside as a movement shooter, off the dribble is a work in progress but he showed he can do it dating back to HS, mechanics and footwork look fine, 78% free throw shooter
-Improved as a playmaker over the year, likely never gonna be great here but making the basic reads and being able to run the PnR would be big
Negatives
-He REALLY struggled at the rim, lacks explosiveness and really struggles through contact, this is a massive swing factor for a guy who projects to be a scorer at the next level
-Needs to take smarter shots, part of why his %s were so bad, took some contested jumpers for no real reason, needs to pick and choose his spots, struggles to create separation a bit with an okay first step, needs to improve burst
-Inconsistent shooter, probably should make his release a bit higher because of his size, mechanics can be a bit inconsistent consistency also could have been a product of the unusual college season
-Bad defender right now, doesn't have the best foot speed and his weight also shows up as a problem here, probably will get pushed around until he gets stronger, effort and focus also wavered, when locked in he had nice moments of staying solid on-ball and getting into passing lanes using his length (these steals easily his brightest spot)
Likely range: 25-35
