STRENGHTS WEAKNESSESS
  • well built frame. Very broad shoulders
  • solid athleticism
  • plays with impressive confidence. Really tough matchup
  • good shooter. Jumps higher than other players while taking the shot. Has pull up and mid range game. Can also elevate coming off a screen
  • aggressive attacker not affraid of contact. Willing to have the ball in hot moments
  • really good defender when he puts in work on this end. Strong legs, can sit down in a proper stance and keep pace 
  • questionable shooting selection
  • seems to be a bit selfish at times
  • doesn’t speak good english
  • needs to broaden offensive repertoire
OUTLOOK
Ershov comes from the city of Kransnoyarsk. He is a player with scorer mentality. He plays with poise and possess strength which is close to elite on his position and easily allows him to compete in U23 VTB Youth League. However he doesn’t have much room to improve physically and is unlikely to ever be equally dominant offensively in CSKA senior team. This transition may be difficult for him and adjustment to the new role may take some time.
