Agree with a lot of your points, very interesting upside but in this era

you can only bank on a player being here for one year. From the little film I've seen he definitely has some defensive upside with that length, but he is still behind MJ in that aspect. Offensively he should fit right in, with a really good jumper and the ability to create off the bounce/catch and shoot. Would love to see him around 20ish minutes at that 2/3 spot, with Jaydon Young playing around 10-15 mins backing him up.

Comp for Rodney Brown is Maddox with a less hitchy jumpshot.

I visited the Cal board on Brown

We don’t need him, lack of ball handling skills & TO’s already covered 😂🤣**

A lot more length than Maddox, no?**
GoldCoast • 04/16/24 07:21 AM ET
Believe he has a much longer wingspan yes**
jfrance41 • 04/16/24 09:42 AM ET
Maddox was 6'5"**

I see him as the Collins replacement.
NC Hoke • 04/15/24 07:17 PM ET
Better shooter than Collins, likely better defense than Nickle. More....

I think he’s a decent pick up, like his length and shooting.

FWIW, his defensive rating last season was behind
NC Hoke • 04/15/24 08:57 PM ET
Defensive metrics in bball don’t always tell the story because it’s hard
jfrance41 • 04/15/24 10:02 PM ET
Sure, it’s all part of it.
NC Hoke • 04/16/24 01:56 AM ET
But he does have a “hitch” in footing…
HokieDDS • 04/15/24 05:53 PM ET
He did remind me of Maddox.**
