From practice:  very athletic / strong kid, with the size and athleticism to give Battle a tough defensive matchup every day [these two really went at it in a friendly, competitive way].  Pretty good shooter, more natural ball handler than Battle [again, this is just practice].  Shows versatility.  He's substantially in better shape from when he played at ECU [at around 230 pounds, he's around 210-215 now].

Here's hoping that he disproves the poor three point shooting % from ECU -- that's what I'd expect.

I also think [based upon observation] that Hughes is going to be a good player for us these next three years.  Reserve next year who hits the ground running due to having been immersed in our system for a year, and then a key starter / scorer his final two seasons.  It will be interesting to see how things unfold.  Reminds me a little of a cross between Dave Johnson and Kris, with elements of both their games.  Swiss army knife type.  Don't have a great feel for how well he rebounds, but he's strong.
