Nique Clifford Film Review at Lunch today. I watched quite a few of his games in season, but this was a nice review:
- Very complete offensive game, he can basically do everything you would want a wing to do. dribble/pass/shoot. He can score at all 3 levels. Is a good passer and is generally smart with the ball. He gets his shot off whenever he wants, but isn't playing the most athletic guys in general in the MWC.
- Defensively he is good, but I would project him to be average in the NBA. He will have to guard much more athletic players in the NBA. He generally plays hard and has good awareness.
He's just so much more advanced than most prospects, which of course he should be since he is much older. It's hard for me to imagine him not working out in the NBA, yet it seems every year older guys with great all around games seem to miss in the NBA. Historically 23+ year olds haven't been super successful.
I haven't watched, but I seems like some see him as the next Josh Hart?
