Expert Analysis
Jason Johnson | Prep Hoops Scout
Runs the floor well for a center. He can make great strong passes from anywhere on the floor, dribble like a guard and shoot from deep. He is a strong communicator on defense. A variety of post moves and most impressively his patience especially when he baits defenders to over commit.

Read EvaluationRobbie Hodin | Prep Hoops Scout
Yadd is a very skilled, 6-foot-10 big man who is a super intriguing long-term prospect as a result of his ability to step out and hit the open three. He dribbles well for his size, and he has a wonderful-looking shot release that forces the opposing center out of the paint. He also has solid footwork on the block and can finish well with both hands. Some added quickness and agility would serve him well at the next level, but his size and skillset alone will earn him high-major offers.

Read EvaluationMichael Roth | Prep Hoops Scout
The first of two Spire prospects on this list, both coming from the NBA Africa academy. Yadd has great size at 6’8 with a strong frame with wide shoulders and a good overall build. Yadd is physical in the paint, not afraid to throw his weight around with other bigger prospects. I was also impressed with how Yadd moved his feet defensively and showed a little bit of a jump-shot in the game I scouted of him.
