I like this reference. His overall game is not yet polished like Sam's but Ben has upside and is constantly improving. I love Sterling, but Ben being ejected last night may have been too much.

He also is probably the best interior passer of all the bigs (though the strength of the team is that all 3 guys are great passers), and he sets really good screens.

I guess he can "mop up" any game he chooses.

And he is in the top 7 in every category.

Ben is quickly developing into a legit NBA prospect. If he can continue to hit the 15-18 footer, he will get serious looks. He does everything well and continues to improve.

Been wondering if he would make it into that category. His ball skills are sick for his size

He just needs a jumper, if he gets that he is an NBA player for sure. There aren't to many 6'8 guys that quick and athletic.

He seems to be very comfortable with the 15-foot baseline jumper now. He needs to live in the gym shooting outside jumpers all offseason.

He started nailing that shot before conference last year, faded in conference, and really stepped it up this season. Definitely will be an NBA player.

I agree that Ben Moore has vaulted to a legit NBA prospect.

And I believe Tolbert might have a shot at pros, if not NBA, then overseas.

If some of our guys start hitting it as legit pros, then maybe we see another bump to the recruiting. Afterall, LB's reputation that he puts guys in pros was built a long time ago, and now he will have recent confirmation that he still has it.

I noticed he added a sweet hook shot. Has he used that before? With his length a hook would be a great weapon for him.

When you get to be the age of some of us, that's not such a bad shirt.
