As a College Recruit
Xavier Booker is a lengthy lefty who just moves in a way most his size does not. He has a lot of pop in his step and fluidity in his movements. While he is a more perimeter-based big right now, you see the ability to alter shots and the rim and rebound in traffic. He will need to get stronger and maybe pay more attention to the rebounding, but there is upside as a switchable type defender. Booker is a good spot shooter with consistent three-point range. He can push the break and has counters when he gets cut off, but he will need to work on not getting too deep with the ball. He runs the floor well. Strength will be a bit thing, will help with his stamina. There is immense upside here.

Xavier Booker continues to fascinate with his length, wiggle, and athleticism. Listed on the roster at 6-11, the lefty knocked down some jumpers and he pushed the ball in transition in grab and go type situations off the defensive glass. He continues to go through stretches of non-production, like to see him use his length and size more consistently. There is intrigue still there, need to see the consistent output.
