Was not on my radar, but I am definitely intrigued. I think he easily goes into my top 60.

for sure draftable, he has some shot creation ability and isn't a total negative on defense.

High, high turnover rate. He can probably get a two-way.

Not too worried about his TOV rate because he's not going to be handling the ball as much.

I like his size and age and getting conference awards, but what does he do well - other than shoot FT's? The t/o rate probably indicates he won't be a good passer and ball-handler in the NBA.

85% free throw shooter (for a 6'9" guy) on good volume, and enough 3pt signal to make me confident he's going to be a floor spacer. Good steal rate for his size and capability of being a positive perimeter defender. I think you're looking at a guy who has a good chance to be a 3&D "big wing". Also he's improved fairly dramatically which combined with his age (he's only a couple months older than Precious) give me hope for significant upside. Not a guy I'd draft super high, but like anywhere late second seems like a no-brainer to me. Just my two cents.

Nice pickup in the mid-late 2nd round or undrafted FA.

Smooth player, nice stroke, not fast or anything and plays his size. Maybe the next Trevor Ariza
