To me he has one of the highest ceilings in the draft. There's a lot that needs improving but the foundation of athleticism, IQ and desire is apparently there already.

most underrated player in the class and i'm not sure it's close. he's been the best player in basically every off-season game or tournament he's been in. has good height/length for his position, an nba body, is an elite athlete, can shoot it, rebounds his position, and is an alpha. basically everything you want in a superstar wing.

Cam is a bit more athletic than Jay B coming out, at least when it comes to vert explosion

I'm not sure if this cat warrants his own thread yet, but I thought I'd share a potential sleeper.

He looks really slow to get back down the court on defense after a missed shot

13/13 from the stripe is insane

Technically, it's not back to back games, he did not play yesterday against Le Mans (Tarpey's team for those following Eurobasket) but played 2 days ago.
Only missing a pass in his stats line (and forgot couple partners on the perimeter to force a few shots - we all know why.. - , i hope it was just a non happening and that he will use his good passing skills when needed, he should become a legit triple double machine).

Cant link the game but it's available on youtube (type 'pro star angers' and you will have the list of the games, the ones with Victor were Levallois vs Holon and Levallois vs Darussafaka).

Leaping is one of those things that it seems like gets embellished for almost every top prospect. But it's insane when you can see in like 2-3 jumps, where a dude is like a very clear outlier, and is just different. That's some ridiculous springs, it looks so effortless too.

I like Chris Livingston well enough, but I think playing with Cason Wallace is going to make him look better than he is.

Not really, look at Yao or Shawn Bradley’s FT%. It’s a lot easier to shoot FT’s when you are looking down at the rim. Have you ever shot on an 8 foot rim? It’s infinitely easier to make shots.

That 2nd tweet on Lawal is very impressive... he kissed the rim and put the ball in at almost the same time.

Well... read that in bball linguo, please. :lol:
