Opposing SEC Coaches and NBA Scouts weigh in on Razorbacks

“I think he is emotional. He gets tired really easily. I don’t know where he fits positionally at the next level. I guess he’s a 5 like a JaVale McGee. I see him as a complementary guy.

“I get the intrigue because of his size and ability to change ends. They don’t run anything on offense. They didn’t call a play against us, so I don’t know if that’s really helping his stock. How would he look in a place that ran some pick-and-roll for him or were able to highlight his game more?

“I question his toughness, his love for the game, I just have a lot of questions on his durability. But I get the intrigue. But I’m not completely sold on him as an everyday guy. Some of that, I think is how he’s utilized. But some of that is watching him on the tape, but I don’t see him as a super-hard-working, team-oriented guy. They are severely under-talented. A lot of those kids just aren’t good enough.”

“I like Joe a lot. He was the first guy out for them. Seems like a really high-character kid. Really like his stroke. He’s an NBA prospect to me. They aren’t very good, but have two real NBA prospects. I really like him. How much strength does he add? How much does the productivity go up? What is the jump from Year One to Year Two?


“But I like all the stuff I’ve heard. And watching him pre-game, he seems like someone who could improve, he seemed like a really diligent worker. But he’s one-dimensional right now. He has range, but needs to have a ball-dominant guy with him.”
