STRENGHTS WEAKNESSESS
  • tremendous physical profile: 6‘5“ in shoes, a big frame with wide shoulders that should fill out
    nicely in time. Solid length. Huge feet & a bit baby faced. Might have an inch or two left
  • excellent athlete. Quick and bouncy. Regularly throws down some highlight dunks or posters
  • great defender. Plays with a huge motor. Pressures the ball, nice timing on deflections and blocks.
    Can guard 3 maybe 4 positions at the U16 level. Aggressive
  • active on the offensive glass
  • dangerous in transition when the defense is not set. Likes to get up and down. Can finish with
    either hand
  • has improved a bit as a shooter. Still streaky but can make shots. Fairly comfortable
  • high basketball IQ. Knows how to play the game. Unselfish. Likes to drive and kick
  • really skinny, especially the upper body. Can get pushed around
  • unpolished offensively, lacks strength to finish in traffic. Not unusual for his age but decision- making still has ways to go. Not a great, consistent driver despite having the athletic tools
  • needs to work on his jump shot. Low rlease point. Can airball on an open look
OUTLOOK
Tom Digbeu is one of the most exciting young prospects in Europe thanks to his athletic ability and relentless motor on the defensive end. He‘s not been playing in a professional environment for too long but he‘s already a lockdown defender and has a budding offensive skill-set. He‘s the son of former french pro Alain Digbeu who was drafted by the Hawks in the 2nd round but never played in the NBA. He did not participate in the U16 European Championship as he‘s still split between playing for France or Spain.
