Summary:
Juwan Morgan is a tough, physical combo forward that can get scores and rebounds inside the paint. He will look to score in the post, off of hustle plays, and he also can occasionally knock down a jumper. However, he will need to improve his jump shot and position defense, and he can tend to have too many lapses on the defensive end at times. Right now, Morgan may be a borderline second round candidate for the upcoming draft.
