Erhunmwunse discusses finalists

Scouting Report
“The immediate takeaway after watching Oswin Erhunmwunse is the athleticism. Listed at 6-foot-9 he has long very arms and a projectable frame. Erhunmwunse is a quick leaper, with his first and second jump. He is vicious around the basket looking to dunk anything within 5-8 feet. He is a good rebounder, tracking well in and out of his area. His offensive game is around the basket, he needs to extend his range to at least become a threat to 18 feet. Defensively is where much of his upside lies. He can slide his feel and act as a shot blocker. He has excellent timing both in the passing lanes and around the rim. Erhunmwunse can open his hips and slide his feet on the perimeter or switch up a lineup to guard on the block. He does a lot of winning things on the floor with a physical a make up you simply cannot teach.” – On3’s Jamie Shaw
