Yeah he's likely a lottery guy for me. Wish he was a little more explosive and he doesn't have a bankable offensive role imo but really like his mix of motor, physicality and versatility. Wendell Carter Jr vibes
He’s very smooth for 6’10”. Very raw as well. Plenty of room to improve. Plus he has my favorite attribute of a draft prospect; The game comes easy to him.
Big leap since last year. Should mean he continues to improve for many more years. I like guys who can impact games without having to score, or at least don't have to get a lot of shots. Especially rebounding and defense. Scoring is usually much easier to find.
First look at Henri Veesaar from Arizona for me vs Baylor... I don't know if Henri comes out this year but if he continues to play like how has to start conference play, I think he'll have some first round intrigue. Was good as a freshman in limited minutes then out all last year with a dislocated elbow, but is still roughly sophomore aged with a March 2004 birthday. Active...moves very well. Impactful around the rim and has some real bounce...look fairly fluid comfortable handling the ball facing up and in DHO's....aaaannnd he might be able to shoot down the line? Came in wanting to get another look at VJ who I hadn't seen in a while and also key in more on Carter Bryant and Robert Wright but my eye's were always drawn back to Veesaar. One game, but very impressed.
Haven't seen this guy yet, but everything about him looks like an NBA player. He has a throwback feel when I watch his highlights. Also, he's very impressive in his interviews. Very well spoken and definitely a student of the game. He has great knowledge of past (and present) players and sounds like he studies the good ones.
Nice, but (a) how's his defense, and (b) what was the injury? And (c) how does he measure up to his legendary fellow Cougar, CJ Elleby?
Looks like a more polished version of Martell Webster. Don't know where he'll be drafted, but I doubt he'd be a good pick where Portland is going to be (1-8)
At least from the highlights, he didn't look to have much lift. Taking advantage of lesser competition really.
Sorry dont know how that happened....same thing I tell my wife when I screw up. The comment before that was what I meant.
