    He's definitely not a three point shooter, but he does have the ability to make them on occasion, which leads me to believe he has the ability to be a good free throw shooter. everything about him is all about his potential

    My eye (which has been wrong before) would disagree. A bit jerky jerky with a low release. The release is not a huge deal but somewhat diminishes the advantage of a stretch big. Not trying to be over critical, just temper the expectation that he will stretch the floor.

    This I would agree with... I have not seen him live so my opinion is limited.

    Like I said I don’t expect him to be a three point shooter or stretch the floor at all. Just saying for a 7 footer he has a very decent shooting stroke

    A lefty too. That's fun.

    I guess if you're that tall you can afford to be a little low on your release.
    I don't always drink beer, but when I do, I drink 2XS.

    Not really; low release surrenders all the advantage of being 7'.
    I have seen only two great plays: Hamlet and put the ball into the basket

    Have seen him in person, and he definitely has a low release. He’s also not very strong. He also runs like a deer and has a dencent ability to handle the ball and seems to have decent hands.

    He’s also only 17!

    Great potential, seems to be well liked by his teammates. Getting good coaching...his coach is the brother of NKU’s had coach. Will benefit from Xavier’s strength coach and the training table.

    This clip shows him playing away from the basket for most of the time. Must have a decent handle and a little range to do that. Maybe not a representative clip. Rest of the team could get to the basket and made some great circus shots.
