Welborn is a big-time three-level scorer who can erupt offensively. He’s powerful off the bounce and has the athleticism to finish above the rim with authority. When he gets downhill, he doesn’t just finish — he punishes the rim. Over the past few seasons, his consistency and overall polish have steadily improved. He’s become more selective with his shot profile while still maintaining his reputation as a tough-shot maker. Welborn can knock down perimeter looks, rise into mid-range pull-ups and attack gaps with force. He competes defensively and brings energy on that end, which adds to his value. Offers have come from multiple levels, and rightfully so. Programs looking for instant offense with physical tools and competitive edge should see the appeal.
