Expert Analysis
Paul Hernandez | Prep Hoops Scout
Wafer is a skilled and physical forward that has great touch around the basket, has the wingspan and timing to be a high-level rim protector, and can space the floor from beyond the arc. Wafer has been one of the bigger names to burst on the high school hoops scene since the month of June through the Fall portion of play and he brought that level of play to the Invite Showcase. Wafer is a beast on the boards, getting plenty of points off missed shots, limits opponents to single shot possessions, has the handle to push the ball up the court, the vision and court awareness to make quality reads up the court, as well to open teammates cutting off the ball from the high-post or from the low-block, and is able to score at the basket off the bounce with the euro-step, up-and-under, and the reverse lay-ups to evade shot-blockers. Wafer has good body control, moves well off the ball, gets to his shot spots, is effective with the 3-ball off the catch, and looks to throw it down when he is close.

Read EvaluationDevin Ugland | Prep Hoops Scout
Wafer is an intriguing long-term prospect because of his physical and athletic makeup which is highlighted by his high motor and ability to defend multiple positions. The wiry and bouncy 6-foot-6 wing wasn’t a statistical monster throughout the camp games but he kept showing flashes of potential as an athletic slashing and finishing wing who, with continued work on ball skills and shooting, can be an inside-out scoring threat.

Read EvaluationBritt Wright | Prep Hoops Scout
A long still growing forward has good instincts around the basket, plays mostly under control has good timing going after blocks, and patience balancing himself going up for buckets around the rim. We saw one and two dribbles to get into his shot for paint points. He’ll probably get some seasoning at the JV level before going up to the Varsity. A rebounder, shot blocker, runs the court can finish with dunks.
