Long and strong with quality agility. Competes hard on defense even when his offense isn’t flowing. Gets on the glass for putbacks. Utilizes a baby hook in the post. Capable of playing above the rim. Draws fouls inside and converts at a steady rate. Solid shot blocker. Plays with emotion and joy.

made his presence felt on the interior all afternoon. Long knows who he is as a player and excels in his role as a low maintenance anchor inside. His frame has really filled out in the past year and that’s taken his game to another level. Long is a force on the glass and finds a lot of second chance points around the basket. He flashed some solid footwork in the low post as well. Long certainly helped his stock this weekend.

Strong interior presence battles for rebounds inside. Works hard to finish around the basket. Best hoop came on a tough reverse layup against Pro One Select. Long tacked on 4 points, 6 rebounds, 1 assist, 2 steals and 1 block.
