Prosper, Olivier-Maxence

"O-Max", as he's known, is a hyper-athletic forward that averaged 12.5 points, 4.7 rebounds, and .7 assists per game. He shot 33.9% from three-point range, and 73.5% at the foul line. Prosper improved his 2-pt field goal percentage with each season. O-Max had more than twice as many turnovers as assists. He posted a 40.5" max. vert at the 2023 NBA Draft Combine. He played well in the Combine scrimmages. He has a 7'1" wingspan but Prosper's DEFRTG was 3.9 points worse than his team's DEFRTG. That number is scary to us. Right-handed. We anticipate Prosper being drafted late in round one. We think some of the hype for him is a bit much. His feel for the team game is poor. He's a 31.6% career three-point shooter with a bad DEFRTG despite great tools. We view him as a low-tier reserve FOUR in the NBA. 

 

Our best advice: in 2021, the 56th pick was Scottie Lewis. We advised, "draft Austin Reaves."
