Also stepping right off the football field and having no issue playing his way into basketball shape, Franco is off to a hot start while averaging close to 20 points per game to lead the Cedars. He’s impressed as a smooth shot-maker from multiple levels, spacing the floor off the catch but also showing the ability to attack his spots efficiently off the bounce. He shows soft touch as a finisher in the lane with evolving athleticism in open space. He’ll have to improve a bit as a playmaker in the long run if he stays at his current size but is on a clear scholarship-level track thanks to the breakout he’s made so far this year.
