Scouting Report from 2007 Pro
Basketball Combine |
| Category |
Comments |
| Physical &
Mental |
Physically, he is very strong. Good size.
Mentally, he is very focused and determined. |
| Ball Skills |
Solid handle for
his position as a forward. Could improve as a "2". Does well in the open
court. |
| Offense |
A good shooter
from the wing. Has a very strong drive to the basket. Can finish. Needs
to expand his shooting range to beyond the arc. Needs to be more
consistent from the foul line. With his size and determination to get
inside, he can draw fouls. He needs to convert them to points. |
| Rebounding |
Solid on both
ends of the floor. Establishes good position, uses his size and strength
to his advantage and boxes out well. |
| Defense |
1-on-1 he is
very good. He needs work in a team defensive concept. Needs to recognize
help side quicker. |
|
Game Knowledge |
At his size, he
needs to understand the role of a 2, 3 and 4 to increase his
versatility. He will be forced out on the wing more at the next level,
and should focus on the skills he will need as a 2/3. |
| Strengths |
Terrific size,
shooting and drives the the basket. |
| Opportunities
for Improvement |
With his mental
focus, he will excel when he starts to transition his skills to the
perimeter, in preparation for the next level. Developing a stronger
handle, under pressure, in transition, will only help his marketability.
Becoming a strong "2", combined with his size, will make him an
excellent package. |
| Overall Comments |
A coachable, focused young man.
Determined and wants to learn. |
