Expert Analysis

20p 4r 1a 1s vs Richard Montgomery
-The senior did a great job of spacing the floor for the home team throughout the game by serving as an effective movement shooter. Kebede started things off with with a lift from the wing to the top of the key for a 3 off the catch then hit a C+S wing 3 in transition a few possessions later, ripped an opponent trying to come off a ball screen and converted that steal into a layup at the other end twice in the 2H, and had a crucial 3 that helped stave off a RM run. Love the lift and consistency of his release on the perimeter jumpers, getting into his shot quickly off the catch or off the bounce because of well-executed footwork.

In terms of his overall production Yafet continues to bring a lot of versatility to the floor. There are lots of reasons to be intrigued – solid wing size, playmaking ability, a good pull-up game, and a high enough free-throw percentage to suggest his three-point shooting should improve.

-Good feel as an on-ball driver that knows if his team needs him as a passer or scorer on that possession. Kebede creates space for jumpers really well off the bounce, love how smooth the dribble pickup is in the midst of sidesteps or stepbacks as he gets into his shooting motion really quickly off the bounce. He can get hot in a hurry and really fill it up as a 3-level scorer that doesn’t need a ball screen to be effective.
