Message: [QUOTE="SoBristol, post: 42066, member: 485"] Saw one of his high school games (on TV). Rak played a wing at the back of their zone, was decent on the boards (considering his height--might have expected better), and not much of a factor on offense. He is lean & athletic -- will block shots and run the court. Did not play as a center; did not show post-up moves inside; does not have a dribble move to the basket. So, no, I don't believe he is caught between positions -- he needs to be a PF and he needs to develop some skills. His problem this year will be the combo with whoever is at C -- difficult to imagine that we play Keita at C plus Rak. Neither one provides shooting or post moves, so you might be fine on defense, but struggle to get scoring. With Melo at C, it depends on whether the light has gone on for Melo. [/QUOTE]
