     I wonder why he is not in the lottery, he is incredibly athletic, explosive and strong. with outstanding lenght, has a jumpshot out to the 3 point line, solid FT shooter and great defender, especially disruptive in the shotblocking department.

    his cons: a bit of a tweener and doesnt have a solid post offense.

    He is more athletic than T.Robinson albeit less expereinced-Polished but could end being a better player in the long run due to his high level athletic ability.

    Maybe measurements and workouts can help his stock. if he ends being 6´9 it could change everything.

    There are two main reasons he’s not in the lottery. The first reason, which you already mentioned, is that he’s a tweener. He’s undersized for the 4 at 6-8 and he doesn’t have enough perimeter abilities to play the 3. Yes, he is a decent shooter and is athletic enough to defend the 3, buthe hasn’t had much experience defending the perimeter and he also doesn’t have much ball-handling ability. Also, playing for North Texas, who plays in the Sun Belt Conference I believe (which isn’t the top level of competition) doesn’t help his cause either.

    I am high on him, it is just really hard to predict where he will go because he played in the Sun Belt. That could either hinder his draft stock because we didn’t see him display his talent v.s. big time teams, or it could help his draft stock because we didn’t see him not display his talent v.s. big teams. But because of playing for North Texas, I don’t think he will be in the lottery.
