Xavier Booker

Draft Notes

Xavier Booker is a springy 6-11 center who has elite physical tools and enormous upside.

Has already developed a nice skill level but is also just scratching the surface of how good he can be.

The big lefty can put the ball on the deck and excels in the face-up game. Shows the makings of a decent mid range jumper.

Has great bounce and lots of length, allowing him to plays way above the rim.

Runs well and is fast up and down the court. Is always a threat for lobs and in the dunker spot.

Will have to add a bunch of strength and weight but has a frame that can handle it.
