What you immediately notice when watching Colton Sembower is the frame. He walks onto the court with that look about him. He already has a muscular build, and his frame is one in which he could certainly continue adding strength without losing much of his mobility. Sembower has good length with a plus wingspan, which you see him use in-game. The part of his game that pops the most is the motor. That motor pairs well with the frame and his plus wingspan. It certainly helps him be a disruptive defensive presence, both guarding off the ball and competing for…

Film Review Notes
The August 2026 film is a good mixtape. Off the rip, it shows that Colton can play above the rim, and then it gets right into the big question: can he shoot? Colton knocks down three straight threes, each from different areas of the floor, each from different catch angles. It shows the touch and shot form coming from different actions. This highlight mix hooks you in quickly, and then gives you quality tips on what Colton could be as a player. Listed at 6-foot-5 and weighing in at 190 pounds with a plus wingspan, already opens eyes as a wing. Showing the ability to guard - playing with a motor ties into this - and knock down shots will be key for any coach to recruit. This ties into the level Colton is projected toward. As the mix continues on, you start to see the connectivity that Colton brings. Some solid passes and moving the ball. it also highlights is disruptive off-ball defense. This film certainly piques the interest in the first 30-60 seconds, and the it settles in to show you the strengths. When you follow it up with the averages and production, you see why this level of school should be intrigued to recruit him.
