18 JARRETT ALLEN, TEXAS
6'11", 224 | CENTER | FR.

It’s all projection right now for Allen, who’s a good shot-blocker with a nice touch around the basket, rebounding ability, true center size and good athletic tools. He still has a ways to go as far as learning the game, and doesn’t look instinctive sometimes. Foul trouble has been an issue for him early on. Allen profiles as an above-average defensive player and could certainly be more as he develops. He’s very young for his class and is the type of player teams will be happy to let develop for a couple years.
