Josh Primo

Draft Notes

Josh Primo is a big time shooting guard prospect with great physical tools and emerging offensive game. He’s got a big 6-6 frame with good leaping ability and the strength to finish through contact.

Although he’s not the most consistent shooter he can get hot from outside and he shows a lot of promise to develop into a good 3pt shooter. He’s got a soft touch and a knack for scoring the ball.

He’s young for his class and his upside is tantalizing.

As a long, wiry and bouncy athlete he’s got all the tools scouts look for, even if his game is not yet polished or completely NBA ready.

Primo is a versatile defender who can switch 1-3. His length and agility are a problem for smaller guards and he’s got the size to guard 3’s and maybe even some 4’s as he gets stronger.
