97 Cs
Tony Battie C+ D D B B+ B
Battie is very active on the boards. On defense, he loves crashing the boards and pushing the ball to create opportunities in transition. Battie will need to improve free throw shooting to be an effective offensive player. Still shows signs of improving as a inside scorer. Currently a rim protector who enjoys banging in the paint. Good potential
Adonal Foyle C+ D+ D+ B+ B B
Elite rim protector. May not produce much from the offensive end. Although he’s not a high volume shot-taker he’s got solid shooting form and could become a knockdown shooter in time. Great shot blocker. Good rebounder. Very strong player. Good potential
Kelvin Cato C+ D D B- C+ A
Has already developed a nice skill level but is also just scratching the surface of how good he can be. Cato can put the ball on the deck and excels in the face-up game. Shows the makings of a decent mid range jumper. Great shot blocker. Good rebounder. Right now, he’s a rim protector with a chance at having a nice offensive game. Great potential
Chris Anstey B- C- C- B C+ B
Anstey is a great defender. Runs well and is fast up and down the court. He is always a threat for lobs and in the dunker spot. Guards post and perimeter well. Solid shot blocker. Good defensive rebounder. Will need to work on his strengths to become a great player. Good potential
Scot Pollard B D D B+ B+ C
Honestly with the first two years, you could possibly get a great player. After that is the biggest question mark. Like a lot of ready now players, it’s a yes or no player. Great post scorer. Great shot blocker. All around defender who can grab the glass. Average potential
Paul Grant C+ D D C+ C+ A
Prototypical bigman who has an imposing frame but moves very slowly. Needs to work on technique offensively other than using brute force. Average defender with room to grow. Needs to improve rebounding footwork. Great potential.
Eddit Elisma C C C C+ B- A
New school post player who likes to play with finesse but can also compete physically. Prefers jump shots to banging in the post though. Not one to generate turnovers but plays good defense. Good defensive rebounder. Great potential.
Predrag Drobnjak C+ C+ C C+ C+ A
Import from Montenegro who has the skills across the board to be a complete player but needs improvement everywhere. Good jump shooter but lacks in other areas. Average defender but has slow reactions to rebounding. Great potential.
Mark Blount C C C B- B- A
Projects as a defensive big who plays punishing defense and will be tough to beat on defensive rebounds. Non-existent offensive game unfortunately. Great potential.
Roberto Duenas C C- D- B- C A
Has played professionally in Spain since turning 18 but could have still used more seasoning overseas. Offensively he can hit jump shots but struggles to create elsewhere. Very good post defender but lacks natural instincts for rebounds. Has all the ability in the world but will need DASL coaching to reach his potential. Great potential.
Mikki Moore C+ C C C+ C A
Starting to develop an offensive game but still has a ways to go before being able to contribute. Often found out defensively as he goes for blocks but not often enough to account for the poor defense. Great potential but will need to be coached up.
William Cunningham C D D C+ B- A
Another defensive big who struggles offensively. Needs to be challenged to unlock his true potential which did not happen at Temple and ultimately hindered his development. Great potential.
Fabricio Oberto B- D C- B B B
Began playing professionally at age 17 and then overseas in Europe at age 18. Safe to say, Fabricio has the experience needed to be an instant impact player in the DASL with his professional pedigree. Solid offensive threat with very good defensive instincts. Good potential.

Re: 97 Cs
Ahhh memories of Sweet Home. No 3-pt, great jump shot (like 70s to start) and solid inside. Never a gamebreaker but always productive. The way the player simmed reminded me of the one foot on the 3pt line outlaw IRL.

Re: 97 Cs
Can anyone who has been here awhile help me interpret some of the terminology being used here in FBB terms:
"Cato can put the ball on the deck and excels in the face-up game"
What am I to assume from this? High handle and high mid range shooting?
Another one: "New school post player who likes to play with finesse but can also compete physically"
This one, I really don't get. Lol

Re: 97 Cs
That's the fun of it, it's not always entirely clear.
I think your first read is correct.
The second one I read as an ok strength big man with high quickness for the position, and then a high jumpshot and passing (new school just meaning a big man that operates more in the high post/face up I guess).

Also, who was that player like 5-6 seasons ago that had "unreal untapped potential" or something unique like that? Did he ever pan out.

He was also the dreaded A potential with a couple C+ and some C-, those guys are rough, every once in a while one pops, but usually they bust.lukeyrid13 wrote:Ha ok.

Horry is a really good athlete who moves well for his size. He isn’t the fastest quick-twitch athlete but has more than enough burst to stay in front of wings and guard multiple positions. Entering the draft as a small forward gives him the opportunities to play multiple positions. All around shooter. Will need time to progress. Amazing raw potential
Turned out pretty good
