His NBA future is 3-pointers, defense and not turning it over. Get to work kid. We're looking forward to it.

He has skills for sure but he has areas to definitely to work on
1- he doesn't have good lateral movement to defend quick, athletic wings in the ACC
2- he doesn't hit the glass for a kid 6-7/6-8
3- what position does he play? He's like Jack (Jack being a better rebounder and defender)

Do I see a little of Luke's craftiness and ability to operate in tight spaces? Goes to his left very well for a righty and appears to have a very soft touch around the rim. HIs layups seem to find the bottom of the net even when they look like the should miss/rim out.

I am assuming you have seen him play before because none of this was in that video.

Very good shooter from all spots on the floor. Great dunker. Does remind me of Luke a little. Didn't see any defense but I guess high light videos don't cover that so we really don't know right now if he plays that turn your head and watch your man go to the basket or in your face defense. We could use one of those in your face d players as a freshman. Been a long time. I know these kids aren't taught to play d anymore before they get to college but some where there's got to be some that want to be a good defensive player also. OFC

Has Duke kid written all over him. I for one, will enjoy him knocking down daggers against the holes
