He's got major shooting potential, IMO.

Definitely needs to get stronger so he can have more of a presence on the glass.

Ya maybe if he was some raw athlete to go along with the shooting form and height, I could see taking a flyer on him this year, or if he was an elite sharpshooter.

But ya as of right now he is just a super skinny 7'1 guy with good shooting form and nothing much else really. I mean in conference play he is shooting 34/34/40 while averaging 5/3.

Definitely a guy to keep your eye out over the next couple years to see if he ever puts things together. That is pretty much it at the moment. Doesnt have the athleticism or the actual shooting production to take a flyer on him at the moment. He needs to actually start showing production on the court before he becomes an actual NBA prospect.

FSU the king of getting weird prospects. I agree, probably 23, but have him on my radar purely for the shooting.

He's like a taller, skinnier Jaden McDaniels.

7-19 from the FT line is concerning for somebody who is supposed to be a shooter. though he has been pretty consistently close to 40% from three over the season too. but it's all a pretty small sample - i'd like to see that FT% go up A LOT with a bigger sample.
