Summary:
Devin Vassell is an athletic, high-motor swingman that can score the basketball in a variety of ways, and he is also a rangy defender that can get steals, blocks, and stops for his team. He will need to be a more consistent player in games as well as improve his ability to create his own shot off the dribble, but Vassell’s athleticism combined with his ability to shoot and defend could enable him to go in the lottery in 2020.
