The state’s top big man in the 2028 class, Julius averaged nearly 15 points and more than 11 rebounds per game for the Georgia Stars during July. He is a mobile big man with impressive size and length, along with above average athleticism that allows him to get off the floor quickly and finish around the basket. Julius has solid hands, can establish position and score effectively on the block, and plays with a high motor.

Fresh off an impressive summer circuit, he enters the new season as one of Georgia’s most intriguing transfer additions. His defensive instincts, physical presence, and ability to alter shots around the rim give him a high-impact skill set on that end of the floor. He has a knack for reading plays early, rotating with purpose, and making life difficult for opposing scorers. Now reunited with several familiar faces from the AAU circuit, the chemistry could come quickly—and that combination has the potential to make this group extremely dangerous.

His feel around the basket continues to develop, with impressive footwork, patience, and touch for his size. He has established himself as an elite defensive anchor, earning DPOY honors while averaging 3.8 blocks per game. His impact extends far beyond rim protection as he has the mobility to defend all five positions, covers ground with active feet, plays with a wide defensive stance, and uses his length to disrupt actions all over the floor.

In the game we watched, Julius’ combination of energy and effort to go along with his next-level size and athleticism led to him posting a 17-point, 11-rebound double-double where he went 8-for-11 from the field. Julius is a mobile and coordinated transition rim-runner and finisher who looks to dunk everything around the rim. What stood out most about his game was the fact that he knows the type of player he is and played to his strengths.

Julius is a five man with a grown man’s frame.  The physical center was dominant in the Georgia Stars opening victory as he was impactful in every facet of the game on the interior.  He grabbed every rebound that was near him snatching them with his strong hands in traffic.  Completely mauled on the glass on both ends throughout the win.  Offensively he carved out space on the interior for turnaround jumpers, ferocious dunks, and powered his way to hook shots.  Runs the floor tremendously well for dunks, give and go slam, and finished out of the dunker spot.  Powerful post with a dominant game 1 at Peach Jam with 21 points (9-15 FG), 19 rebounds, and 3 blocks.

While Julius is still a work in progress with his skill development, he did show soft touch at the charity stripe and knows what he is offensively. A name for high major programs to monitor in Georgia’s 2028 class.
