This is how you do a hype video. I've seen even better versions out there - but couldn't find them this morning.

Larry looks to be that guy. "They" (whoever they is) compare Larry to John Wall, one of the more athletic guards to ever play basketball, before his injuries. Larry's ambidextrousness (absolutely a word) makes him a tougher matchup. And all reports are that he's a grinder, gym rat type too. Which means (cue Kimberly Guilfoyle's shrill, obnoxious voice), THE BEST...IS YET...TO COME!!

This class of 2024 is stacked. But now, I'm greedy. Let's get a banger down low to backup Fred for a spell and take over in the middle. No more rebuilding in Omaha; we reload.

Larry is one of the players in Bossi's writeup from the Vegas event.

Someone mentioned it in the replies on Twitter, but all of his finishes in that video are with his left hand, but he shoots with his right. Just thought that was interesting, pretty impressive stuff

Jacob was the first to point it out in his Twitter breakdown. He clearly favors his left hand for everything except shooting.

Not sure I'd call that "ambidextrous" like another poster did... such an obvious preference to go left will hinder his offensive game.

Still, Larry has so much potential and he has time to work on his right. I still think he's underrated in the rankings.

I'm assuming he said positive things? Anything in particular stand out to Bossi?

Another great read on Larry from 247 sports. Love this quote: "He brings elite athleticism and budding skill to the table while being incredibly ambidextrous."

And here's another breakdown of his game. The whole Twitter thread is worth a read.
