As a College Recruit
The intrigue with Nigel Walls comes with the mixture of his size and natural fluidity. Listed around 6-10, Walls is a good straight-line athlete, but he also moves well laterally, and is able to open his hips and switch directions. Walls will need to continue getting stronger, this will enhance his production on both ends of the floor. He is a capable floor spacer when his feet are set, showing a consistent release and range. He will need to continue working on the balance and footwork of his shooting. Walls offense is more in transition, have not seen much in the way of back to the basket at this point. Has a lot of natural raw tools, tools that are appealing at the highest levels. Now it is time to start piecing the tools together, enhancing the skill set, and consistently producing. The defensive upside is very intriguing at this point.

Nigel Walls is filled with tools. He has good size with good length and a lot of natural fluidity and athleticism. He is still raw, but there are hints of a jump shot and touch and some comfort handling the ball in the open floor. I like the defensive upside. He slid his feet well on the perimeter and was capable of opening his hips and changing direction.
