Message: [QUOTE="husky429, post: 4011434, member: 6696"] Karaban [LIST] [*]Not very good coming off screens. Slow and footwork isn’t good…. Off a regular catch he looks great. [*]Shooting is just way off this weekend. Not too concerned considering the history. [*]Still loving his defensive IQ. Rotates realllyyy well in scramble situations. [*]Got HOT in the 2nd half. Sparked a run for Expressions with two catch n shoot 3s…. Actually one was waves off to be a long 2… people crowding the corners messed with his space. [*]Baseline drive for the and 1 reverse looked pretty athletic. It’s really hard to get a read on this kid’s athleticism…. Even had that big dunk late in the game in OT in traffic. Might be a hip fluidity issue and not a pure athleticism thing? [*]His first step is weird driving… doesn’t use a negative step, just does a strange hop thing? Needs to sort that out at IMG. [*]He’s getting to the rim well and has good rhythm in his shot… I think all the games in a row are probably getting to him. Would explain the + FT shooting but bad shooting everywhere else. [*]Got blocked three times. Once on a bad decision to shoot… needs to use his jump stop and pump fake in the post more instead of going up as soon as he can. [*]100% the kind of player that is better in a structured offense… aau doesn’t look good on him. [*]FANTASTIC pocket pass to Kante (who was fouled)... better passer than the stats are showing. His teammates miss A LOT. [*]RIDICULOUS deep three late in the game to tie it with 20 seconds left. Another with 7 seconds left.. .wow. [*]Dunk for the lead with 1 minute left! [*]Ended up with 26/4/1 on 9/15 shooting. 4/8 from 3. [/LIST] Kante: Kid is BUILT [LIST] [*]Looks like a center, not a PF imo. [*]Limited as a scorer outside of dunks it seems. [*]⅚ from the line. VERY confident at the line for his size/position. [*]He’s one to keep an eye on… high upside. If he doesn’t improve on being bigger and stronger than his peers, it might not be a good fit. [*]Long [*]Beast of a rebounder. The kind of guy you don’t teach to box out… just say “get the ball” [*]Fouled out at the end of regulation [/LIST] [MEDIA=youtube]TFQLP9aotIM[/MEDIA] [/QUOTE]
