NBA Comparison: Austin Croshere
Strengths: Prolific scorer with a wide array of offensive skills … A 6-10 forward with advanced inside/outside skills … Very effective facing the basket from 15-18 feet… Gets his shot off with ease with his height and quick release … Has tremendous range out past the college 3 point line and solid consistency … A tough match up on the college level with his ability to take bigs outside, and post up quicker forwards … A strong rebounder due to his length, toughness and positioning … Has an excellent feel for the game with solid passing ability and decision making … Has the ability to create offense for himself off the dribble … Uses spin moves and drop steps effectively … Never forces things, takes what the defense gives him … Dropped 15 pounds from his senior year in high school and has significantly improved upon his agility … Retains the toughness he developed playing center in high school … Gives great effort on both ends of the floor …

Weaknesses: Lacks standout athleticism … Has good agility but lacks tremendous speed in the open floor … His ability to drive on the next level will be nullified some due to his lack of foot speed … Defense also suffers due to his lack of overall athleticism and foot speed … Needs to continue to develop his upper body strength without taking away from his quickness, but for his age has excellent size and body strength … A PF on the next level due to his speed ...

Notes: Once scored 52 points in a high school game … One of the top college freshmen in the nation …
