Aran Smith - 10/5/2006
Strengths: A tremendous competitor with a real passion for the game Finds a way to out-play superior athletes with great heart and will power Possess a high basketball IQ ... Emotional and intense competitor who will do whatever it takes to help his team win ... Shows amazing hustle. An overachiever, maximizes his talents Tough around the basket, really battles hard for rebounds and is fearless attacking the basket Shows excellent versatility on the college level with the ability to post up as well as face the basket Always seems to know where to be. Rebounds well, especially offensively and competes hard, doesnt back down An excellent defender on the college level, but his lack of foot speed is a big hurdle for him on the next level Has great vision and passing ability for a forward (has averaged 3 assists per game throughout his BC career) Outside shooting has shown solid improvement
Weaknesses: Lacks a real position on the NBA level Too small to play in the post and lacks the speed, athleticism and quickness to guard perimeter players Foot speed is painfully slow Not especially explosive or athletic Has a decent jump shot, but lacks a potent offensive repertoire scoring mainly on shots around the basket Has sort of an unusual frame with hunched shoulders Scores a lot of baskets by simply overpowering players, but the same moves wont be effective on the next level Statistics are very consistent but appear to have leveled off Decent shooter from mid range but lacks consistency from 3 point
Notes: Will have a chance to assume a larger role offensively with the departure of Craig Smith (NBA) Has a chance to make it as a role player in the NBA, but likely will become a star in high level European basketball

Weaknesses: Potential wise some will be concerned about how much development he has left Athletically he isnt a superior athlete on the college level and will be even less of one in the NBA Defensively his lateral quickness will prevent him from effectively defending his man Has had a few times this past season where he has had to defend elite athletes and has struggled Lacks the first step to gain full separation from his defender Has yet to fully create offense for himself off the dribble. Which explains why he rarely drives to the basket Prefers to create offense in the post then extend out to the perimeter Will be viewed as a tweener too short to be a power forward and not athletic enough to play small forward Perimeter shooting can go through periods of inconsistency Although Dudley has shown improvement, he still struggles to shoot off the dribble
