A physically mature, powerful 6'8" forward who combines a strong frame with explosive athleticism and a non-stop motor. He is an effective midrange scorer and finisher who uses his strength to win mismatches and control the glass. His swing skill is his perimeter shooting, which needs to become more reliable for him to reach his full offensive versatility.

NBA Comp: Jarace Walker, taller Zion with less bounce

big and athletic

too small (6'8) to be a complete non shooter

post presence/dho/screener on offense

middy isn't bad

big time board man

real nice finishing touch

not as high a motor as id like

not a good off ball defender; the ball watching causes him to give up tons of 3s, but he helps on other drives and deters/blocks shots often

can be an excellent on ball defender

Versatile Forward, Big

(Diet Paolo)

• 2 level scorer, comfortable mid range

• Smooth jumpshot, over both shoulder mid fade

• Great lateral defender

• Physical defender on ball

• Plays at his own pace

• Rebound%

• Not a lead playmaker

• Not an explosive athlete

• Range

• Undersized?

Very skillful, and clearly fundamentally sound. You can see he works hard with a trainer. Flashes big upside. Works inside the arc, clever in the midrange with high release, creates good space. Needs to extend range to the 3, doesn’t even take them. Not a huge STOCKS, but is a good lateral mover - too strong for small, too quick for bigs. He’d need to go somewhere offering time to develop, otherwise I’m not sure he’s a big contributor to winning as an undersized, interior guy.

PROS Very good rebounder Good finisher and interior player

CONS Almost only an inside presence, not much on the perimeter does not create much off the bounce not a 3 pt shooting threat

Peat is a special athlete, however his lack of positional size and questions surrounding his shooting make him a difficult prospect to evaluate.

Luckily the Wizards cover these flaws well as the current roster provides great spacing and size.

His strong interior pressence would be great addition on offense and defense for this young Wizards roster.

If the Wizards miss out on a top pick again, Peat is an intruiging prospect.
