Skip to main contentKoa Peat has a naturally strong frame, with long arms and broad shoulders. On the ball, Peat plays with a confidence in both the half and full court. He is a good rebounder and able to push the break in transition. With his lengthy frame, there is upside on defense, especially guarding off the ball. This summer, Peat showed a tendency to settle for jump shots. When getting downhill, he lacks counters off the bounce, and his hips look stiff, attacking mostly in straight lines. The form on the jump shot, the release specifically, looks clean and consistent, leading to the thought he could grow into being a shooting threat. Peat is young, with a 2007 birthday. His father and brother both play(ed) on the line in the NFL.

Koa Peat is a productive, physical presence. Despite his young age, he has good length and a very strong frame. He is an active rebounder in his area, chasing rebounds and securing the possessions. He pushes the break with a purpose, showing great balance and floor vision. Needs to develop the jump shot, streaky at all levels. He finishes well around the basket, has good footwork, and he finishes through contact. The production is hard to ignore.
