Killian Tillie

Draft Notes

Tillie is a stretch-four with a silky smooth release. He’s got the height to shoot over the defense and is deadly accurate from downtown. He’s got touch around the rim and works hard on the glass.

He’s a solid enough athlete who needs to get better on the defensive end. His backpedal and lateral agility are about average and he doesn’t project as a great switchable big.

Has missed some time with ankle and other injuries over his career.
