NBA Comparison: Omar Samhan

Strengths: Hustle can't be questioned. ... Was one of few veterans on a Final Four team. ... Dramatically improved as a senior, when he was finally given playing time for coach John Calipari ... Rebound rate was solid. ... Didn't commit many fouls despite playing in the post. ... Played within his skill set, never attempting to be something he wasn't ...

Weaknesses: Out of shape. ... Would be one of the most unathletic players in the NBA ... Height isn't ideal for the center position. ... Very unproven, even after a Final Four run. ... No offensive skills aside from rebounding. ... Defense mostly consisted of playing physically without much actual skill or athleticism.
