A big forward with guard skills and one of the most complete skill sets you’ll find at his size. He can grab a defensive rebound and push the break himself, then run offense from the top of the key with a fluid handle that includes long-striding crossovers, hesitations and spins. He scores at all three levels. He’s a confident catch-and-shoot threat from deep, with step-back and pull-up ability, plus a polished face-up turnaround from the baseline. Around the rim he’s an explosive, above-the-rim finisher who also has the body control to hang and finish through contact.

I’m fairly certain Rosser is a prospect we’ll be seeing play in some big games in the future.
