Brice Sensabaugh has come out of nowhere as an electric scorer for Ohio State. He’s a burly scorer that has an immense amount of feel on the offensive side of the floor. He has big-time buckets that are tough to stop. He doesn’t create a lot of space but manages to hit contested shots in the face of anybody. He likes to spin around for tough jumpers right in defenders' faces which should be an inefficient shot but he just hits them. He has a really smooth stroke from three but more often than not, he likes to move up for a better look. In the midrange, he likes to walk into pull-ups or conduct fadeaways, but for some reason, he remains stationary on the perimeter. Brice will often wiggle around for a little bit before just stepping hard and letting it fly. The most he’ll usually do is a simple sidestep or fake out but that's generally about it. He relocates well in between moments where he handles the ball but struggles when it comes to using ball handling to give himself a shot. It seems he has to have more of a setup to get his arc right from the outside which could limit his transition as a self-creator at the next level. As I said, he moves well without the ball. He has been an effective off-ball cutter that’s always trying to stay aware of where the ball is. He’s not overly athletic but is able to get it done in little open lanes that he finds. He isn’t an above-the-rim finisher and isn’t great at transition and downhill play. Players who rely heavily on this type of offense in college sometimes struggle to translate to the NBA due to a lack of athleticism and ability to create, but I don’t think Brice has this problem. He’s currently utilized as Ohio State’s main option so he’s guarded pretty fiercely by some tough Big 10 defenses. Once he gets to the league, he’s mostly likely to be used as a spot-up shooter and catch-and-shoot threat. He can also score at times from the inside but isn’t a great downhill attacker due to physical limitations. He’s a very stocky player and he likes to use that offensively. By the basket, he uses his size to bully other slimmer guys at his position. It seems he doesn’t go to this part of his skillset due to a conditioning or stamina issue. He has had injury issues in high school which could have had long-term effects on his lower body burst. Once he’s put in an NBA physical program and is utilized in a lesser role, he could build more of a capability to score in ways outside of tough shotmaking. His ability to distribute the ball is rather weak. He doesn’t look to pass as often as he should due to his mental wiring as a scorer. He has shown ability when getting it to cutters and shooters but he doesn’t choose to see the floor in the way he needs to. Defensively he has some issues with effort. He isn’t fast and agile enough to handle a lot of on-ball coverage. Defenders tend to blow past him. He doesn’t fare much better off of the ball as he gets lost and distracted easily. I would also like to see him play with some more grit on this end of the floor seeing that he has a bulky frame and long arms. These defensive shortcomings are a combination of athleticism and intensity issues. He has the physical tools such as length but his body and mind have a hard time keeping up with the pace of the game. He might be having issues due to his large offensive load at Ohio State but he will need to learn how to adjust and diversify his role once he gets drafted. With a lesser work expectancy as an on-ball scorer, he can hopefully develop in his areas of need such as defense and playmaking. He’s been an offensive star in college and has shown flashes of converting his role to be an effective weapon in the league.

Brice Sensabaugh has taken over college basketball, being one of the most productive freshmen in the nation. A strong forward, he is a walking bucket and he can score from all three levels. He's got a good handle and a quick first step. He's got a great jumper and doesn't miss. He’s shooting 50/40/80 this year at Ohio State. His defense is a bit sloppy but he can fix it with work ethic. It should be a priority for him to clean up on defense. His playmaking has slightly improved. He's got a great foundation as a scorer and averaged 16 a game despite coming off the bench for a good portion of the season. His self creation is great, he's got solid quickness and good moves. He shot 53% of the dribble 2s, making him one of the most efficient freshmen ever. He was arguably the best scoring freshman this year, right up there with Brandon Miller. He can knock down tough shots. He's an underrated 3 point shooter. His defensive impact needs to grow if he wants to be a true superstar in the league. He's improved as a playmaker but still isn't great.

Offensive advanced stats darling. Eric Gordon body with a more mechanical shooting stroke. Game reminds me of Evan Turner. Not the quickest laterally or fastest at straight-line speed, but can get to his spot via some shift and shake/uses size to post up and pull up for contested mid-range shots with relatively good efficiency. Defensively, can use his size against post players, but lack of mobility and quickness laterally can be a problem at the next level.

Ultra high efficent player this season 3 level scorer Hits toughs shots consistently with hands in his face Amazing Far 2 numbers 49% 172 attempts pull up shots iso game uses the glass stop and starts quickly fader clutch shots has a full arsenal of moves, just gets buckets good rebounder 46% on Catch and shoots on 120 attemtps Huge NBA frame 2 meniscus surgeries in hs one had him out for 6 weeks as a soph the 2nd made him miss his junior year.
