6'8, 6'9 200-220 lbs, plays the 4, not the 3, not the 5. Solid, pretty versatile power forward. Rivals and 247 both have him ranked low 130's. Playing for Brewster Academy which as we know is high level serious basketball. Ranked 23 best power forward, 2nd in the state of New York. Brooklyn kid, great friends with Bouknight and a teammate of his at MacDuffie. Has good mobility and athleticism, rebounds well and is willing to mix it up. Receives and shoots in the lane and down in the post, can drive from the wing, can shoot from outside. Seems to handle the ball pretty well for his size, sees the floor as a teammate, good IQ, from all reports for quite some time, really wants to come to UConn. We do need to bolster our frontcourt, if not a center, someone who will play the 4.
From what we are hearing this is probably our guy, the last schollie for 2019. Crystal ball 100%%% to UConn. Hurley and staff must like what they see, a different player than what we have currently at the 4, more rugged, more of an interior player. Wait til Sal gets ahold of him and adds strength and muscle. Certainly more of a 4 year player, and we have seen already that this staff develops players. They must feel that he is a good fit.
There are some highlights from this summer if someone could please post them. Thanks.
