Summary:
Drew Timme is a strong, skilled big man that can score the basketball in a variety of ways. He had a decorated collegiate career, had a very good senior season for Gonzaga, and he was one of the best players in college basketball this year.
Timme is a very skilled low post scorer, can take slower-footed opponents off the dribble to score, and he also can knock down mid-range jump shots. He also is a good passer out of the post. On the other hand, he is a below the rim player that lacks ideal athleticism, and can tend to struggle to guard quicker players. Currently, he projects to go in the second round range in the 2023 draft.
