Kevin O'Connor who did the scouting reports for the Ringer for years and I guess now is at yahoo has a pro scouting report of our leading scorer. It is not very positive. I think he underrates him by saying is athleticism is limited. While he is not the quickest player, I think he has good agility and jumping ability. In my opinion to make the NBA he either needs to shoot better or create more. In either case his jumper needs to be rebuilt and he needs to get stronger.

Agree on the assessment of his passing. Once he starts thinking about taking a shot, he gets locked in on that and the other four guys know they won't see the ball again unless it's on an offensive rebound.

Good length and surprising athleticism, though!

I think a better athlete than they are giving him credit. He is sloppy with the ball at times. I think he will get better at shooting 3's with better PG play and shot selection. He and Wilkinson too often had to do too much to create offense which led to some questionable shots.

They knocked his FT shooting but he was at nearly 82% this past season.

Good points and I'll add the following. I'm not a kinesiologist, but I think a good jumper should also be quick - both depend on fast-twitch fibers of largely the same muscles (quads, hamstrings, gluteus, calf), right? So, I have to believe that it's about his reaction-time and poor technique (and maybe flexibility?). I think Andrej plays too upright on defense - he needs to get his butt down. I think specific training can improve his quickness and coaching can improve his anticipation/reaction-time.
