     Lebrayan Nash: Streghths: super strong and great interior scoring and good with the ball

    Weaknesses: can’t really shoot for a SF and his a little slow footed cause of his size

     

    kinda another tweener for me, reminds me of Terrence Jones but just shorter

    I must have seen him(Nash) on a good day because the game he played against Perry Jones team he was the quickest player out there. He wold guard Jones and then guard there point guard/shooting guard. Most scouts compare his defense to Artest( when he tries) he has a tendacy to not always play at his best on defense.

     

    L.Ross has almost if not as much talent as anyone in this class but his weakness is he sometimes doesn’t bring it. He has started to bring it more and more then he used to. Nice midrange, long range, drive. Wouldn’t be surprised if he is Ohio St leading scorer next year. Also wouldn’t surprise me if he ends up being the 6th man

    Of the ones I know for sure:

    PJ: He is by far the best shooter in his class. I’ve watched Hargrave play and he went 6 for 7 from three in just 3 quarters…it seems like he was making everything. I’d say that he gets too in love with his jumpshot though (he has a reason) but he finishes really well and I’d like him to take it to the hole more.

    Quinn Cook: The best comparison I can find for him is a more flashy Kendall Marshall. Though sometimes his flashiness costs the team, he can make crazy passes.

    Deuce Bello: Bello is known for his dunking and when he played my HS he sure did a lot of that. But one underrated part of his game is his three point shot. It looks a bit funky but he made five threes on us. Other than that his offensive repertoire is strictly jacking up a 3 point shot or dunking.

    Do you think P.J. Hairston will be Austin Freeman 2.0 due to his massive size?

    Dorian Finney-Smith…….From what I seen of him he is an outstanding shot blocker, on D he always checks the opposing PG no matter if his squad is in man or zone. He is on the wiry side when it comes to his frame. As far as his offensive game he can play PG at the next level. He always brings the ball up, all he does is attack the basket. Everything he throws up in the paint goes in from jump hooks to floaters, that is his strength. Not a selfish player at all. He has one of those get the f*ck off me crossovers that is deadly with a quick first step. He loves to give a hesitation move as well. When he drives to the paint he looks to dish if he does not have a shot. Biggest weakness is his outside shot. Mid range shot is more of his game. Best overall characteristic is he is a proven WINNER, 2 back to back State titles.

    i like dorin’s game. i agree with ESPN scouting report on him

     

    Strengths:
    Smith is a very skilled forward who shows the ability to play outside/in. He has a smooth handle that allows him to get by his man from the perimeter, and be a secondary ball handler against pressure. He makes very good decisions with the ball and can deliver passes in the open floor off the bounce. Smith makes it extremely tough to defend him with his ability to knock down the open 3. He has a good stroke with range out to 23′ to go with a strong willingness to attack the rim off the dribble. Smith does the majority of his work attacking the offensive glass where he gains extra possessions consistently for himself and his team.

    Weaknesses:
    Smith lacks a true back to the basket game. He is much more of a face-up 4 than a scoring post. When he does go to the block he lacks great lower body strength to hold his position both offensively and defensively. The one area of his game I would love to see flourish is his attitude on the defensive boards. In the area where toughness and nastiness come into play, Smith struggles at times to be a difference maker on the defensive backboards.
