Summary:
Anthony Duruji is an athletic, high-motor forward that is entering his senior season with the Florida Gators. He is a rangy defender that can get blocks and steals, and he also is a high-flyer that can finish plays above the rim. He’ll need to be a more consistent outside shooter and will need to improve his playmaking skills in the meantime. Currently, he projects to be a borderline second round candidate for the 2022 draft.
