Message: [QUOTE="Lefty2one, post: 3952141, member: 1001"] I assume teams are going to put smaller players on him and try to take away his space, much like how teams defended Porzingis early in his career. Put a 6'6" guy on him who's stronger and quicker and can get right up underneath him. I don't know that Holmgren's ability to put it on the floor is there yet. On some drives he looks a bit slow and lumbering and upright--to me looks less agile than Poku, who's only five months older. His handle is still pretty loose in general, though advanced for a 7'1" guy. The potential is there but I'm not sure he'll be blowing by DI guys with regularity. Big men are so incredibly difficult to scout and project how productive they'll be in college. Drummond's HS mixtape made him look like Magic Johnson in transition. Gonzaga will probably see a ton of zone in conference play too. [/QUOTE]
