Pruzinsky nearly ripped the rim down on multiple finishes while also displaying a soft-touch push shot over defenders, length, and contact. That touch translated when it mattered most, converting a crowded, physical putback for the sudden-death game winner. He showed reliable hands, the ability to dunk or tip in lobs, and maintained his dominance on the boards against some of the top centers in the country while playing with a true competitive edge.

Pruzinsky uses his height to snag second chance rebounds, stretch the floor on the perimeter, and fly above the defense for momentum shifting dunks.
