Piper-Ibrahim was a cut above much of the competition at the showcase. He was just on a different level physically and athletically, and demonstrated the type of approach that highlighted those strengths. He’s got a handful of moves on the perimeter that allow him to separate and get that long frame going downhill, and was one of the top finishers throughout the day. He was a constant presence at the rim and at the foul line, and although he did step out to knock down some outside shots, he saw his advantage was around the paint and wasn’t settling much outside the key.

The Annie Wright freshman was one of the better slashers at the showcase. He has the length and athleticism to get down lanes and convert around defenders, but he also had some great moves outside to beat his man and then burst to the basket. Showed some legit acceleration in the open court to blow through defenses, and put the pressure on the interior defense resulting in a lot of trips to the foul line.

Yet another Annie Wright player to watch coming down the pipeline, Piper-Ibrahim is a lanky 6-foot-4 wing with perimeter skills and the athleticism to finish around the rim. He put together a strong summer and should be ready to have an early impact in his freshman season.
