A legit 7-footer with the necessary physical tools to carve out space on the interior and to be extremely impactful in the paint on both the offensive and defensive ends of the floor, Zach Destine took a tremendous leap in his development, with his production significantly elevating throughout the course of his junior season. As Destine continued to get stronger and refine his skillset, he consistently leveraged his length to be impactful with his activity around the basket in a multitude of ways— excelling as a true rim protector altering and block shot attempts at the rim with solid timing and anticipation skills, soft touch around the basket paired with solid footwork in the low post to either make a move or turn and finish at the rim, crashing the glass for second chance opportunities and securing boards on the defensive end, and effectively rim running in transition.
