Weve been following him for sometime. I bet he ends up in the top 15. Hes a powerful athlete with size.

Averaged 11/9/1 BLK on 60% FG in the EYBL this year, which is fantastic for a c/o 2019 player.

Most likely Kentucky or duke

I'm not so sure about that. He has a bit of Duke interest I believe, but knowing UK and Duke they're going to be getting the top 15 guys. Seems like we haven't really been going after big men in the 30-100 range lately, only striking out on 5 star bigs, then going for 150+ stretches. It's good to see that we're going for mid-range big men, just like we have been for guards.

My analysis after 20 minutes of highlights...

Good:
- Built like an ox
- Enormous hands. Like huge, makes the ball look like a softball.
- Pretty good athleticism.
- I imagine his rebounding will translate to college well.
- Potential as a skilled big. Tried a few moves, but they weren't the prettiest.

Bad:
- Obviously new to the game. He isn't fluid with his motions like you see with a more long-time player.
- Doesn't seem to be a shotblocker

Need this if only for the Pete Gillen commentary.

At his size hes bound to block or shot or two. As long as hes competent defensively im happy. If he can box out and rebound ill take it.
