Overall:

Strengths: 6’5.5 wing … Good length with a 6’11 wingspan and 8’7 standing reach … Gifted scorer. Can make shots from anywhere on the floor. Shoots well off the catch and very effective pulling up off the dribble. Only needs a little bit of space to get his shot off. Can make difficult shots look routine. Can score without having offense ran for him. Scores in isolation and in bunches. Heats up quickly … Solid midrange game and floater … Draws fouls at a high rate and is a reliable free throw shooter … Natural athlete. Can finish plays above the rim with little effort … Good rebounder for position …

Weaknesses: Plays very loose and too laid back. Doesn’t come off as a fierce competitor or leader … Can show better value of possessions. Has unconscious shot selection and can be too quick with the trigger. Settles for the first open look and doesn’t work to get the best shot opportunity. Tends to take the same shots regardless of the flow of the game. Sometimes takes on multiple defenders and attacks without a gap in the defense. Reading the game at the college level will be an adjustment … Can improve moving without the ball … Doesn’t offer much if his shot isn’t falling … Not a strong ball handler and doesn’t have a game that makes his teammates better. Tunnel vision for the basket and low assist count … Tends to loaf on defense at times and doesn’t always get in a stance … Questionable focus … Has room to get stronger … Tends to rely on natural ability …

Outlook: USC freshman … 2017 McDonald’s All-American, scored ten points in 11 minutes … Son of Charles O’Bannon … O’Bannon’s a natural talent but has a way to go in his development. One of the top scorers on the Nike EYBL … Led Bishop Gorman to win the State Championship with 36 points in the championship game over Clark …
