Expert Analysis

Colby Giacubeno

Prep Hoops Scout

First thing that stands out with Ballard is his strong frame. Once you see that he can move pretty fluidly for his size and that the motor is consistent, you start thinking about the other aspects he can develop. For the time being, he knows how to use his physical frame to establish position on the block for post touches. He’s strong enough to maintain his leverage on seals to fight off his defender and on the catch, he’s able to spin off either foot as he attacks the rim. Ballard showed touch on over the shoulder hooks, good concentration on drives through contact and dependable hands as he rolled to the rim following ball screens.

Malik brings size and strength, and showed to be a true offensive weapon with the ball in his hands. He is comfortable creating for himself, attacking and finishing at the rim, but can also knock down open shots. What you have to like about his game and long-term future is his ability to be coach.
