Where 18 boards rank this prospect
Belongs in the NBA athletically. Passes the eye test out on the court. Moves well and has tons of vertical pop. One of the best dunkers in the draft. Spring to get up and block shots, but had a surprisingly low block rate this year. Gets lots of steals too. Should have some switchability defensively. Elite lob threat offensively. Didn't show much offensive game outside of dunks. Did take some threes, but only made 13 percent. If he can add a 3 pt shot, it would go a long way. Has the athletic tools to stick in the NBA. Didn't think he had the best hands. Also didn't seem to have the best touch on his shot offensively. His perimeter shot is the key to the projection of his career. Think he can provide some energy minutes off the bench either way, but could become a plus player if he can space the floor, too.
