Scouting Report:
Long
limbed big man who can score downlow, rebound, and steal passes/block
shots with his wingspan.
Strengths :
Scoring in the
post. Blocking shots and stealing passes. Great offensive rebounder.
Can run the floor and finish strong. Good free throw shooter. Body
looks like he has the potential to pack on more muscle with no problem.
Weaknesses:
Height is a question mark, as he could be anywhere from 6’7” to 6’9”.
Doesn’t have much of a face up game. Is still a little raw with his
post moves. Lacks experience as he played 2 years in JUCO before going
to Oklahoma.
Projected 2006 Draft
Range: Late
first round pick.
Consensus:
Gray’s long
wingspan and athletic ability makes him a sure fire first round pick.
His shot blocking ability, springs and ability to run the floor will be
assets in the pros. He should be a solid player, but needs to develop a
face up game and prove he can guard quicker post players who step
outside the paint.
