Paolo Banchero

As a College Recruit

Big frame with broad shoulders and natural strength. A solid straight-line athlete. Stiff in the hips, wonder about lateral ability, and moving feet on the perimeter. Is an instinctive area rebounder. Can push the break. Is comfortable initiating the offense in the half-court. Excellent mid-post game with an array of footwork, counters, and confidence. Good on the low block, left shoulder, and right shoulder. Good off-ball cutter gets to spots with purpose. Sees the floor very well can run the offense through him from multiple locations on the floor. A streaky shooter from range, better off the catch than off the bounce, but still needs work. Wants the ball. Former quarterback. Leader.
