Frontcourt notes
Yohan Traore
Traore struggled with his outside shot early during shootaround. He’s really emphasizing holding his follow through.
His movement is strong but not as smooth as Moore or Broome. He’s more explosive than any other player on this team. Energetic. Has a really nice midrange shot.
Excellent finisher. Primary scorer in the front court.
Johni Broome
Is a more polished, smoother, left-handed Horace Spencer. Strong defensive instincts.
Broome does the thing that Flanigan does where he rolls the ball in the palm of his hand, cocking his outside shot a little too far back before he releases it - except he does it slower and just doesn’t look comfortable that far away from the basket. Inside the arc, he’s solid, and looks like a different player in terms of comfortability and fluidity.
Dylan Cardwell
Cardwell hasn’t really changed or developed anything past what he already does (which for him individually is an issue) but it doesn’t necessarily hurt the team overall. If Broome has an injury I wouldn’t be thrilled to have Cardwell step up in that spot because of his shortcomings. His offensive game is limited, but he fits well within his role and is a great energy boost. He's very solid for what Auburn asks him to do.
Jaylin Williams
Williams continues to shoot well in practice. Wonder how it translates to a game.
Does not look comfortable with the ball in his hands for extended periods of time, but does have a decent handle.
Similar to Cardwell in that he fits his role and doesn't do too much outside of it. Efficient player.
Chris Moore
Is legitimately in the mix for the starting role at small forward. I doubt he gets it, but he's playing hard. Doesn't do anything particularly flashy, but plays with intensity.
Backcourt notes
KD Johnson
Seems to be shooting more consistently than he did last season.
Challenges on close outs with his off hand? Every other backcourt player did not do this. You're supposed to challenge with the opposite hand of the shooter, but from what I could tell nobody was consistently using their left hand except for Johnson (who was, from what I saw, defending all right-handed players during this particular drill).
Seems more willing to give the ball up. Seeing the floor a little better. Arguably the best backcourt player of the scrimmage.
Tre Donaldson
I like Donaldson’s shot, it just isn’t consistent. He’s building up from too low and he’s leaving shots short or offline. Has good fast break instincts. Needs time to develop.
Wendell Green
I think its clear that Green is the best shooter on this team. Great release, smooth, consistent. Is accurate despite losing balance on some shots during practice.
Really solid vision, as we all know. Found Traore on a beautiful ¾ court fast break pass. One of the best guards in the SEC.
Allen Flanigan
Base is too tight on jumpshots. It’d be okay if he wasn’t rolling the ball back in his hand when he shot it. A little too casual at times, hot and cold player. Very explosive when he wants to be, seems to lack confidence at times. Solid defensively, efficient when he doesn't try to do too much.
(Zep Jasper and Chance Westry did not participate.)
