Summary:
OG Anunoby is a skilled, two-way player that may have what it takes to excel at the next level. He can attack the basket relentlessly to get points in the paint as he moves well off the ball, and he also can knock down threes with great efficiency.He also is a solid defensive player that can make big plays to help his team force turnovers and get stops. He did not receive much playing time last year as a freshman, but with a strong sophomore season, Anunoby could likely end up being a lottery pick in 2017.
