They’ll be doing digging on a ton of guys. I’m skeptical of a player at that level making the jump to being ready to burst onto the scene in a starting role for a team like UConn. I’m happy to be wrong, maybe he really is that good. And defensively it’s more scheme dependent/showing his warts but surrounding him with better players & scheme can improve it. Putting on quick tape, he’s not very athletic, but looks like he can get to his spots. Seeing different info on if he’s 6-5 or 6-8, doesn’t quite appear that big.

The reality is, we’ll see 1000+ kids hit the portal and each time stats jump out, people will say: this is the guy. You want a roster that compliments one another, that’s the goal. I’d be having sights on a wing from a bigger conference who has more athleticism and proven metrics as a plus defender. Obviously they’re looking for someone who can do it all: create off the bounce, handle it, defend, rebound. Not easy to find but they can find someone who fits that mold & surrounding them with better players can get the most of that guy.
