Oscar Tshiebwe

Draft Notes

Oscar combines brute strength and great length with good balance and agility and he brings constant energy on both ends of the floor. Those traits alone make him worthy of a first round pick.

He could move into lottery consideration if his mid-range game gets a lift and if he realizes his great defensive potential in his time at West Virginia. His rebounding prowess should translate to any level of play.
