Amen Thompson is a blur with the basketball. He is simply faster than most players he shares the floor with. The quick-twitch speed leads to upside on the defensive end. When you added his positional size and length, you can see why there is so much buzz about what he could be on defense. Offensively, he is still raw. The reads are not natural to him, but he is starting to see the floor better. The pace is also something that is coming along. His explosion is the best part of his game, so continuing to mature in slowing down and reading the play will be something to continue watching. He was 1-for-1 in this one from three. The jump shot has a tendency to flatten out, and the release is inconsistent; this has been a point of emphasis for him. The burst and explosion are high-level. As he continues to play, he should continue to improve his skill set and feel.
