He's really athletic, I read a article where he said right now his main focus is getting stronger and playing better defense. Scoring and athleticism wise he is elite.

I wouldn't mind 3, 4 or 5 on that list. 1 of those and 1 or 2 of the instate guards and 1 more big and that would be a solid class.

Will be a great talent and immediate impact


No. No he won't.

The only thing that this kid has right now that is "big time college" ready, is his jump shot. His ball handling needs to get better, he doesn't elevate enough on his jump shot, not sure he can use his left hand very well when attacking the basket. You guys say he's big time athletic, the kid can dunk, but he's not going to dunk on anybody but the little Aussies he's playing against. He is raw, and he looks like he has some upside, but this isn't a "BOOM" type of player. Definitely not a kid that is going to see a lot of PT his first year IMO. Put him and Hornsby side by side and it's literally not even close at this point, immediate impact means he will get significant minutes. Let's not get ahead of ourselves.

I'll be honest, I haven't seen a full game from him or anything, but I think this is really trying hard to make some point that I'm not sure of... This is another 6'5" guard who can certainly do more than you are giving him credit for. I think he has pretty damn good ball handling for an off guard... His ability to block shots shows he has plenty of athleticism and to think he can only dunk on small australians is just silly. He may not be posterizing players, but given any space, this kid is slamming it down.

He basically has no school left so he can be working fully on basketball till next fall. From everything I've heard, the kid has great work ethic, knows he needs to improve, and will work hard to get where he wants.

This kid can play, and will contribute.Im not saying that he's going to step on the court and be all conference,but I read that he shot 72% from the floor which means he attacks the rim a lot. And on top of that he shot like 42% from three so yeah the kid can play
