Gaeta is a productive forward who can fill out the box score and have a bigger presence than his 6’4″-6’5 listed height. He brings instincts in the paint and natural timing on collecting rebounds in bulk. He’s effective at establishing and maintaining leverage inside to invite post-entry passes or put himself in position for second chance opportunities. On his block touches, he keeps is eyes up as he scans the floor for cutters before making the decision to back his man down and create angles for over the shoulder hooks. Gaeta has soft touch on floaters in short rolls, good timing as a weak side defender to draw charges and does all the little things you need out of a frontcourt prospect to put yourself in a position to win.

Already an impact player for Maret on the defensive side of the ball. Gaeta brings good size to the roster and he can get up and down the court well. Catches well inside and finishes at the rim amongst the other big men. Gaeta spends a lot of time in the paint fighting for position and winning for second-chance opportunities. Oliver brings hustle ad intangibles to the game that can every team needs. His defense at the basket is disciplined and sound, goes straight up with both hands most times and allows the opposition to dictate the contact on their shot. Mature player with a lot of time to improve his game on a team that will benefit from his potential added contributions.
