Rainbow shot? Aggressive dunks in transition? Dion Waiters is back baby!
In all seriousness the fact that he is a solid athlete is very encouraging.

That’s what I like about him. He has an all around game.

Some people compare him to Buddy, I don't know if he shoots as well as Buddy but I don't remember Buddy dunking like that.

Not saying you did, but he is definitely bigger and more athletic than Buddy.

his shooting stroke is text book. i'm sure there will be some growing pains, but with his athleticism and natural stroke, he can be a very, very good player for us in a couple years.

Besides Mintz, he may be the freshman who has the biggest impact for us next season. I agree with the all-around game assessment. I just really hope he can make the transition to the speed of the college game by early in the season.

Whether we get another Forward or not, JT and Bunch will both have an opportunity for PT at the SF spot. JT looks to be solid with a feel for the game. I especially like how he finds the 3 pt line with his feet if he's close. Also runs the floor pretty well. I'd love for one of them to be slasher.

He looks like a more aggressive and athletic Cole. I am not sure how his rebounding and defense are in comparison.

More similar to Cooney, albeit a little bigger

There were a couple shots that looked a lot like Buddy. Taylor isn't the shooter that buddy is, no doubt. But he definitely does more things than Buddy on the court. There were more drive and dish highlights in these videos than Buddy had in four years, for instance... More dunks too.

The court with three different 3pt lines made that hard... He found the line, got his toes behind and made a long two on several occasions because of that silly looking court.
Taylor didn't seem to go all the way to the basket unless he's got a clear line. He seems to like the floater or pull-up when challenged. I wouldn't call him a slasher, but he definitely has the two dribbles and pull-up game that can make use of open space. If he's the fifth starter with Edwards, Williams, Girard and Mintz, Taylor will have a lot of room as the other guys will get lots of attention.
