Keaton Wagler

Draft Notes

Wagler was an underrated recruit with a pro-looking frame and game. He’s a wiry 6-6 athlete with broad shoulders who looks the part of a NBA level player.

He’s a crafty ball-handling big guard/wing with a smooth jumper. Shoots it with deep range and is deadly from mid-range.

He’s can dance with the ball and get into his shot off the dribble and plays with great rhythm and change of pace.

Can handle point guard duties and is a good play-maker and offensive initiator.

Needs to get stronger and fill out his frame but plays with a lot of grit and toughness and isn’t afraid of contact.
