6'9/240
Chicago, IL
Curie High School
Apparently visited UT today along with five star guard Jaquan Lyle. A consensus top ten player from the city of Chicago, he has offers from Louisville, Michigan State, Kentucky, Michigan, Ohio State, Kansas, and Indiana. I don't know how interested he is in UT, but an unofficial visit is still great.
ESPN Evaluation
Strengths:
Alexander is a big mobile post that is a terror on the class. He snatches everything that comes off in his area with force and is not afraid to put hia body on his opponnet. He also was active and blocked shots in and out of his area. Alexander did a great job with screen and roll situations as well. He set wide screens and rolled hard to the rim which he dunk when he received the pocket pass. He also showed a nice hook over his left shoulder. Alexander ran the floor and played with good urgency at all times.
Weaknesses:
Alexander must continue to work to stay in shape so consistent work on strength and conditioning is a must. He must also build his back to the basket moves and learn to face and hit the jumper to about 15 feet and his game goes to the next level.
Bottom Line:
Alexander is a strong and physical post that can rebound, block shots and finish. He plays hard and competes on both ends. He must work to stay in shape and build his offenasive scoring package but this big man has tremendous upside.
