Michael Anumba is built like a tank, and he’s got a jumper. There was no surprise last season when he was named West Conference defensive player of the year: powerful legs, quick hands and overall impressive physical profile to shut down any rival. As we know, stoppers can win games, but in Anumba’s case he can also win them in the other end by scoring at you. Because of that, he has become one of the hot names to watch in England, and holds the Deng Camp #1 this campaign. Although he plays mainly as PG, he’s still our choice for the secondary guard spot and it’s obvious why. He can put the ball in the rim in an impressive variety of ways: firstly using his solid jumper, natural and fluid off the dribble, although he too has long shoot range/3pts menace, which still needs bits of work in the catch and shoot. However, he can be just as productive as a driver and off the bounce, bringing lots of energy with a strong first step and a bag of ball fakes and reverses to finish at the rim with both hands, or while absorbing contact through bodies. Decision-making and improving court vision will be the natural points to focus on as primary PG, but he has the versatility, tools and strength to play several positions in the backcourt, and there is little question we will see him balling as two-way professional player in a short time.
