Height: 6-7
Weight: 230
College: Michigan State
Classification: Redshirt Senior
Birthdate: 9/11/1996
Projected Draft Range: 2nd Round to Undrafted
Pros:
Decent shooter that can make threes
Excels at scoring on the move
Decent playmaker for his size
Good rebounder
Adequate defensive player
Good motor

Struggles to create his own shot off the dribble
Streaky shooter

Can be turnover prone
Can be foul prone
Only an average athlete

Summary:
Kenny Goins was viewed as essentially a non-prospect, and then suddenly he emerged as one of the stars in the November 6th game when his team played against Kansas.
He made threes and high motor plays on both ends of the floor, and Goins may have what it takes to make an NBA summer league roster, and at best, he could end up being a Lance Thomas type in the association.
