Jordan Adams

NBA Comparison: Anthony Morrow Strengths: His greatest attributes are his scoring ability and competitiveness … He is a player who really wants to win and will sell out for the team … Many scorers’ use the defensive end for 35 seconds of rest time, or don’t crash the boards hard … Adams instead seeks an opportunity to score at all time … While on defense he is great in anticipating passing lanes and jumping them to get out on a fast break …

Jack Cooley

NBA Comparison: Lonny Baxter Strengths: Cooley is a big, physical power forward with a high motor … A great rebounder, particularly for his height, thanks to his wide frame and aggressiveness on the boards. Averaged 10.3 RPG, good for 12th in the nation, and was even higher in rebounds per 40 minutes (13.9) … Doesn’t shy away from contact; his bruising style makes him a tenacious rebounder and an aggressive post scorer … An efficient scorer in the post, Cooley shot 58% last season and 60% over the course of his college career …
