Big kid for only a sophomore.

Charles Coleman Jr 7 foot C/O 2019 PF for Wrightway Skills & Dexter - YouTube

This is not what I expected to see from Coleman. Apparently he's a shot blocking big man with a developed frame who also can shoot the 3. Big upside there. Reminds me of Govan.

Get this kid to reclassify to 2017! Looks like he'd be the biggest dude on the team, by far.

What did I just watch? That's absolutely the first mix-tape of a 7 foot big man with zero dunks.. trying to figure out if that's a good or a bad thing.. Looks like he can shoot the hell out of the rock, though..

As a 2019 I'd rather know he can shoot it than dunk it. Nice skill to have at that age, and even better to enjoy shooting it for a kid with size like that. Too many kids are more concerned about their dunking ability and in the long run the shot never catches up.

No vert, but a nice wingspan. And range on his jumper.

I kept waiting to see his feet more than 8" from the ground. 7-0 with a big wingspan works without actually jumping as a HS sophomore. Not so sure it works as well in D1.

He also shoots his hook shot (oh no, it's a sweeper!) from a very low position and his footwork is questionable, but what big man's isn't at that stage. But between the outside shooting and the nose for the block, yeah, he's got a future. Just wish I saw him get off the ground a bit easier.

I like that Charles appears to be committed to developing his left hand and does well with it for his age. nice soft touch on his shots. Like others, would love to see him work on his quickness and lift. He seems to have good timing when blocking shots, just can get away with swatting without having to get up against the Lilliputian guys on the other teams.

It takes big kids much longer to grow into their bodies and achieve any level of explosion or fluidity.

Eh it's fine. 7' plus wingspan is all you need. As long as he can move his feet.
