STRENGHTS WEAKNESSESS
  • forward with perfect size and length for position
  • has done tremendous job with body development. Really bulked up frame
  • makes an impact with his good athleticism and energy
  • does incredible job of moving off the ball with apprioprate timing.
  • solid ball handling ability especially regarding the height. Capable of changing the directions at full speed and getting to the rim
  • really soft touch using both hands in the paint on floaters or semi-hooks
  • good rebounder. Attacks the glass. Can grab & go
  • uses his length effectively on the defensive end. Deflects the passes, contests shoots. Solid anticipation
  • good teammate. Communicates a lot
  • not really bad but a bit unorthodox shooting mechanics. Needs to prove himself as a three point shooter
  • very light frame at the moment. Can’t fully use his great slashing abilities
  • could refine his footwork. Starts from travelling often
  • not precise passer on the move.
  • top notch activity and effort but takes really a lot of attempts. Not all seems good decision-wise
OUTLOOK
London native, Nelson Boachie-Yiadom started to play at the age of 7 thanks to his mother who has a Polish descent. He is a stud player for British market and decided to move to USA for High School to maximize his potential. He will benefit from adding strength to his versitality and ability to play above the rim. He is still raw in some aspects but work ethic and good feel can help him to have a good college and pro career.
