NBA Comparison: Alan Henderson

Matthew Maurer – 1/5/2007

Strengths: Excellent athlete who has great mobility and quickness Above average rebounder who hustles to get rebounds out of his position Possesses above average shot blocking ability Has great timing and uses his leaping ability to disrupt shots Lateral movement enables him to be a solid help defender Active player who constantly works to get open Runs the court extremely well for his size This mobility gives him a real presence on fast breaks Has evolving perimeter shooting skills as he shows range out to 16 feet … Ball handling ability is solid enough to help him escape double teams Does a good job of drawing his man away from the basket where he loves to shoot the baseline jumper Creates mismatches with his shooting ability and athleticism Good finisher around the basket A late bloomer. Despite being a senior, Carter still has a good deal of potential left

Weaknesses: Ball handling ability is still raw. Although he is comfortable dribbling, he hasnt shown the ability to take opposing defenders and drive to the basket Still goes through periods of inconsistency, but to his credit this is to be expected when one considers his actual game experience Position wise he doesnt have a prototypical power forwards body and lacks small forward skills … Needs to improve on his upper body strength and will need to bulk up and add 20 pounds This is likely the reason he doesnt get good position in the low post Back to basket skills are still raw and unrefined, he clearly prefers to face the basket Still learning the game and can be prone to picking up silly fouls While a capable passer he can be careless and telegraph his passes allowing for easy steals
