Ruben Prey

Draft Notes

Prey is a prototypical big man who does his work in the paint, rebounds, sets screens and scores in the lane.

He’s got solid movement skills for a big body and shows good footwork in the post.

Flashes some face-up skills and a good looking jumper and will likely expand his range in time. Has some ball handling ability and can take his man off the dribble.

Has good length and a frame that will fill out well over the years. Is more of a strong/power player and not the most vertically explosive athlete.
