Julius Randle Scouting Report

NBA Draft Prospect Julius Randle

6,9 - Power Forward - Kentucky

Highly talented big forward out of Dallas Texas, who shows a lot of versatility and very good ball skills. Coming off of an injury.

Pros

Very skilled with the basketball. Has a great handle and can drive to the lane with either hand. At 6,9 he can lead the fast break or take his man off the dribble.  Can score inside or from mid range and is developing three point range.

Very good passer with nice court vision and shares the ball willingly. Has a quick first step and surprising quickness. Very strong upper body and good overall power.

Cons

Not the biggest PF and might be a tweener at the NBA level.  Doesn't have super long arms and isn't the best leaper. More of a below the rim type player. Needs to get in better shape to maximize his potential.

Projection: Top 5 Pick in the 2014 NBA Draft
