Ignas is a 4* version of TJ Leaf. Very similarly diverse offensive skillsets. Good shooters. Can take the ball to the rack and finish with either hand. Much more comfortable handling the ball than most PFs. Leaf was an inch or two taller at this stage with great athletecism. Iggy is merely a very good athlete.

Size: Legit 6'6-6'7 rather than reported 6'8. College ready frame right now at 200+ pounds

Athleticism: below average/average athlete. Not fast in a straight line, doesn't move particularly well laterally, good strength, average verticality. Lacks explosiveness.

Shooting: above average shooter, but certainly not a knockdown shooter. Likely to be a low-mid 30s type from distance in college.

Ballhandling: above average/good ballhandler for a 3/4. can get in the paint/to the rim off the dribble on consistent basis.

Passing: good passer from stagnant position

Scoring: good/very good finisher around the rim with both hands that has good body controll and gets into the chest of opposing bigs to negate shotblocking

Rebounding: good/very good. Boxes out/seals then releases to pursue ball. Will likely average 5+ rebounds per game in college once he sees 20+ minutes per game

 

HUGE pickup for the good guys here. EM#29 for 2018. Instant impact prospect that is likely to be a rotation player next yer. Coach Beilein putting together a monster class with 3 guys that are likely to get minutes as freshman next year.............best part about it is that he's not done
