jawai looks to be a late first round pick this year when he is automatically eligible and could develop into a offensive roleplaying starter (if his offensive game comes around like it looks like it will).

he is strong and physical, athletic, good wingspan, plays hard, good rebounder, has good hands, shows potential as an offensive threat (good touch on shot, shows a high basketball IQ, good passer out of post), raw offensively (needs to develop his post game and ability to put the ball on the floor to help develop a faceup game), needs to get in better shape and work on his consistency.
