    – Trojans is my favorite team, so I try to watch every game 

    – nba ready first rounder in 2018, range maybe 10 -30

    – something in between Dieng, Noel, Noguera, Gibson, C. Zeller

    – has got some Kevin Garnett moments, could be V. Faverani as worst case

    – improved shot, capable of midrange, good footwork, two-handed hookshot/layup, lob target, strong finisher

    – to thin, foul prone

    – not strong enough to defend C like H. Whiteside, D. Cousins

    – shot is too inconsistent to be a real stretch 4 at this moment of his carrier

     If he shows he can be a better shooter is he a top 10 guy? He could be a monster starting PF on the celtics

     He’ll get plenty of exposure to show how good he is next season. USC is gonna be dynamite; that team is STACKED. Deep tourney run me thinks.

     I was surprised by how much he developed his offensive game when I watched him in the tournament. Reminded me of watching the Raptors version of Chris Bosh. Simple midrange jumper, face up blow by, and post up game. They give you space hit the jumper  they press drive, and if they stop the drive counter with some post moves. He really got it down from what I saw and I think he can be a late lotto player next year. Couldve snuck into the 1st round this year.

     smart to go back to school, too thin to play in the league yet, another year and improvement in all areas, probably a late lottery pick.

    he would have been lucky to go late 1st if he would have signed with an agent
