The shooting is obviously elite, but I'm always impressed with his ball handling....it looks so smooth and natural for a guy his size.

Great tape. Worry a bit about his shooting form, with it starting out in front of him and so low. I could see that getting blocked at an above-average rate. But you can't argue with his numbers/results. As mentioned, he also seems very natural and fluid with his ballhandling. Not too common for a guy that's 6'9".

Trying to think of comps. A few names came to mind. Slightly shorter Lauri Markkanen, slightly taller Tucker Devries, Duncan Robinson, a way better Larry Bird, poor man's Avery Dingman, Dikembe Mutombo

Those got progressively worse. Any better ones?

I didn't see his 3-ball get blocked one time in all of the tape I watched. He's tall enough with a quick enough release and shoots from far enough away that I don't think it will be much of a problem. His lack of lift around the basket is the bigger problem in terms of him getting blocked at the next level.

The best comp on that list you gave is probably the taller Tucker DeVries one.

Was introduced at the game last night by Ravi during one of the new "Jays Live" segments. Crowd seemed to actually be aware of recruiting and who he was and responded nicely. Hope he enjoyed the game, and guess since he's already committed and signed it doesn't matter that the atmosphere wasn't really great for last night's game.

Yikes. My bad. No clue what I was thinking there. Thanks for the correction!
