Lows: when going in transitions some time tunnel vision causing a turnover, needs to be more aggressive on the offensive side (he can get his own shot as well as a cutter), don’t be so deep for 3 just the right spot for it at times, has to have a better floater at times

(Going back to school)

Pro Comparison: Worse Al Horford

  • Interior Scoring

  • Human Highlight

++Strengths:++

  1. Makes eye-popping passes all over the court and dissects defenses

  2. Can take the ball up himself to initiate the offense and make high-level plays

  3. Good touch around the rim and on floaters

  4. Outlier season shooting as a senior (40% from 3 and 80% on free throws)

  5. Flashes strong positional defense whether it's containing wings and even some guards

  6. Solid rim protection

++Weaknesses:++

  1. Commits awful fouls and always seems to complain

  2. Needs to cut down on careless passes, he tries to be like Nikola Jokic too much

  3. Never shot better than 30% on catch and shoot 3s before this year or higher than 70% from the free throw line

  4. Below the rim rebounder who will need to be paired with another big that can help and grab boards

Maroon, Ph.D.

If you turn your TV on at the right moments, you would think he is the greatest collegiate basketball player of all time. A big man hitting step-back fadeaway threes? Sign me up. Unfortunately, he needs to show he can stay on the floor, rebound smartly first, and be an at least average play finisher at the next level, or else he goes from being an insane matchup nightmare for the other team into one for his own. There is an elite ball-handling and shooting big here in theory (huge emphasis on in theory), and at this point in the draft teams should aim to swing big (and miss a lot of the time) on prospects like him.

I gravitated to Hawkins game some time last year. Just a quality big that makes the right plays. Reminds me a bit of Boris Diaw back in his day , with his versatility dribbling passing and shooting as a big.
