Online videos are short and most are a year + old, but at first glance he looks like a perfect stretch 4 in our system even though he's only listed at 6'6.

He's not a quick twitch guy, but does have a college ready body already at 220. He seems to be a patient player that finds a way to get where he wants on the court and is also a decent passer with decent ballhandling. My mind immediately went to how good of a pick and pop guy he might could be with our PGs

For his height he blocks a ton of shots in the videos. Just looks like one of those guys that doesn't overwhelm you with athleticism but ends up filling up the box score because he's just a really good overall basketball player. These type of guys tend to translate pretty well into really good college players b/c they aren't fully reliant on being faster, bigger or more athletic than their competition.

I'm sure some of you have seen him play numerous times so would love to hear some thoughts on his game and if you think he translates to the 3 or 4 in college.

I don't think he plays a 4 position. I think he's a SF.

If he is anything like his Dad he is tough as nails and will leave everything on the court every time out. His Dad wasn't that talented, but he defined hustle. I assume we still have a hustle award named after him?
