Analysis

NBA Comparison: Harold Arceneaux

Borko Popic – 4/8/2008

Strengths: A smooth and clever lefty, who has become known for his scoring prowess … He handles the ball well, is an underrated shooter, has great court vision and an uncanny ability to throw passes through traffic … His length and feel for the ball allow him to grab rebounds (has had 12 double digit rebounding games this season)… His scoring comes from all areas of the floor, he is able to shoot the 3, pull up going both ways, up-and-unders in the lane, floaters, fadeaways and crafty finishes around the hoop off of drives … He is a difficult match up primarily because he is a lefty, but also because he shoots a variety of off-balance and unorthodox shots that find their way into the hoop … His shooting mechanics are decent, showing great range, although his release is a bit slow, and the arc is somewhat flat … He shoots almost standstill without using his legs, but it allows him to utilize his shot fake more efficiently to get by the defender … His offensive versatility and ability to fill it up in a hurry are definitely something that should make him attractive to NBA teams …

Weaknesses: He seems to be somewhat of a tweener for the NBA because he is not big enough for the SF spot, and is lacking the quickness of a SG … The biggest mystery is undoubtedly his defense, because VMI plays a trapping zone the entire game … He has good length, hands, feet, quickness, decent lateral speed, but at time seems disinterested in playing any D … He bites easily on shot fakes, and also lunges on closeouts, allowing inferior players to get by him … The biggest issues for the NBA seems to be the fact that he has played small time college ball, his slight build, questionable defense, and the fact that he doesnt do any specific thing great …

Notes: Playing with and against better competition will give a better picture of where he exactly fits in. With a good showing at pre-draft camps he can answer many questions and undoubtedly raise his stock. Measured a 6-9.25 wingspan allowing him to play bigger than his 6’4 height.
