Message: [QUOTE="subarney, post: 1602360, member: 801"] Battle plays for St. Joe's of Metuchen, NJ. Strong sports school that has produced several NBA players over the years. Battle's teammate will play for Ole Miss next year (Tyree). First thing that jumped out with me is his size. Has a similar build to Gbinije. 6'7 probably 200 /210 pounds. Battle didn't bring the ball up much, pretty much played the wing. Started out game hitting a 3. I don't think he has a very smooth shot (like Richardson) but I'm no expert. Liked his defense. Quick hands and moves well. Gets his body in position allot. Offensivelly I'm not sure he is true point guard. Though he did pass the ball fairly well. Has some jump to him. He finished with 17, 6 rebounds, 5 assists, 3 steals. As cuse guy said, we need finishers at the point. Not sure Battle is that but a solid player in the mode of Gbinije... [/QUOTE]
