Hudson impacts the game with a blend of positional size, physicality, and multi‑level scoring. He’s most effective when he’s attacking downhill, using his frame to finish through contact and generate paint touches that collapse defenses. Defensively, he guards up and down lineups, showing the strength to battle bigger wings and the mobility to stay in front of guards. His rebounding presence and willingness to initiate the break make him a true connector piece. At the college level, his value lies in his two‑way versatility, toughness, and ability to impact winning without needing high volume.

Hudson brought his hustle and power to Day 1 of team camp. Before rolling his ankle later in the day, he banged in the post with purpose, ducking in for deep seals and finishing through contact like it was personal. Yet it wasn’t all interior—he faced up with poise and showed flashes as a high-low facilitator. On the glass, he was relentless—two-hand snags in traffic and quick put-backs that flipped momentum. Hudson’s motor ran hot, and his presence commanded attention at both ends.

Hudson stands out in a positive way on the floor. He’s a 6’7 forward that can make a major impact around the rim. Only a junior, he has youth on his side. An explosive player that finishes lobs, dunks, and blocks shots with authority. He’s a vertical presence and knows his role. For Fayetteville more scoring opportunities will be provided to him in the near future. This weekend should start off what’s going to be an action packed junior season for Hudson.
