He's 15, has been dominating in Australia, putting up big stats playing for Queensland, I remember him putting up a few 40+ point games. Here he is at 14 years old -
Then today I came across this footage of him going against Oklahoma, playing for our professional NBL team Cairns Taipans (he's just like a practice player so still college eligible). Has some time on head to head with Trae Young as well -
Box score is here, he had 10 points in 16 minutes, with 2 assists, 2 boards and a steal, no TO's, and if you watch the footage a bunch of other great passes that could've led to buckets as well.

It's early days and I'm sure you guys aren't too interested in looking that far ahead, but top Australian prospects are few and far between so I've been looking in to what I can about him. He's 5'9 as far as I'm aware, maybe a little bit taller now, so his physical growth will have a lot to do with his upside, but he has phenom like speed, shiftiness, handles, etc., and a strong shooter to boot.
I think he's destined for some pretty big things. Didn't look out of his depth at all, heck probably the best player on the court, against grown pro's/D1 college players, at his height and at 15. He and Josh Green are the only Australians with NBA upside that I'm aware of in the next 5+ years.

Any sites you'd recommend to get quick and detailed scouting reports on the practices?

Rivals does a solid job of that.

Duke could go Fab Five starting 5 frosh next year
Jones-Goldwire
Barrett-O'Connell
Reddish-White
Williamson-DeLaurier-Robinson
Montgomery-Bolden-Vrankovic
Vrankovic and White should def redshirt by the way, not gonna get any playing time, but they might in the future, and both are legit prospects for Euro-hoops
