NBA Comparison: Brad Daugherty
Strengths: Bigman with good strength and solid athletic ability
Unlike his twin Robin, Brook has an excellent touch within 15 feet of the basket
Very smooth inside using a variety of polished moves including hook shots and drop steps
Soft hands, rarely fumbles the ball
Strong legs and upper body make him tough to push around inside
Strong rebounder using his long arms and body strength to clean the glass
He also uses his strength well to create space for baskets in the post
Really came on offensively towards the end of the year with five 20 point games out of the final 8
A solid free throw shooter at 69%, which should improve over time
Displays good composure and confidence for a player entering his second year in college
A decent shot blocker, not likely to become a great one but can be solid
Weaknesses: Not incredibly fluid athletically. Both brothers sort of look awkward with their hunched posture and the way they run, Robin is quicker and more agile Brooks lack of foot speed makes him a little slow in transition, but once he gets his feet moving he can run the floor pretty well Not incredibly explosive. He gets off the ground well but doesnt explode to the rim quickly Should shoot a higher % from the field than 50%, shot selection must improve
Notes: One of the top center prospects in college basketball Registered a rare triple double on Jan 25th against USC with 18 pts, 11 rebs and 12 blks
