He does get rejected by the rim at one point when going up for a dunk, yikes.
Makes a nice outlet pass for dunk soon after.
Active on the glass again, offensive rebound and possible putback and the foul (bad camera angle, can't tell if it went in).
Playing good defense on his man, another guy who looks to be all of 6'8 or 6'9 and steps outside to shoot.
Gets another steal in the open court and dribbles all the way down, had the layup but ref called travel. It's close. Probably should have let that call go, but close enough to call a travel.
A sneaky little feed to his man in the post, sort of slipped behind defenders for an easy deuce.
Picks up another loose ball, presence of mind to find a wide open shooter to hit the baseline three.
Another loose ball picked up on the offensive end, he really has a knack for finding the ball (somebody in the background of camera just says he's very athletic, lol).
Nice play to seal his man, easy score down low.
Again, cleans up a mess and converts and one, hits FT.
 
Francis, a few things. Very unselfish, team oriented guy. He does a lot of little things and nice to haves for a big man, passes, dribbles down the court, contests shots, decent rebounder. I will say that he doesn't ooze athleticism, but just trying to be unbiased. Also, as we've seen from RC game, he does have a physicality and knows how to bang down low. All said, for a guy still learning fundamentals, he could be a very decent player a few years from now. He's got to work on lateral quickness and agility, but some great instincts for the ball.
 
I think that was just one quarter, but he is really active!
