Summary:
Kasean Pryor is a strong, athletic big man that played at South Florida before transferring to play at Louisville. He has a versatile set of skills and is an underrated passer for his size, and he also can finish plays above the rim. On the other hand, he hurt his knee in a game against Oklahoma, and will end up missing the rest of the 2024-25 season. He projects to be a long shot to be drafted, but if he makes a full recovery, his size, athleticism, and emerging skill set could enable him to make it to the NBA someday.
