Rankings: #3 in c/o 2009
Notes: Solid big guard who has added some weight going into his senior year which should help him slashing to the basket as well helping out on the glass. He is pretty good at controlling a game and getting his teammates open shots, most of the time for a layup. Good stroke out past the arc, but would benefit from a stronger mid-range game. Needs to get a little quicker and improve his face up ballhandling when guarded by smaller quicker guards. Maybe his best asset is his high basketball IQ and ability to keep up with more athletic players in all facets of the game even though he is not extremely athletic himself. Will not out jump very many players his size but he will beat them to a spot for a rebound or loose ball using his IQ to his advantage.
