6'6/180
Franklin, TN
Looks like us and Memphis are the leaders.
Strengths:
Jalen is another smooth operator with freakish athletic ability. He excels on the break where he is a highlight waiting to happen. He has great size and length already for a wing. He has a very good skill set and very limited wasted motion on the court. Jalen is an excellent athlete and pulled off one of the best dunks in camp (Super Soph Camp) where he took off outside of the lane for a monster flush. He is a solid shooter with range to 20 feet. Lindsey is athletic enough to defend both wings positions as well.
Weaknesses:
He generally prefers to drive left even though he is right handed which can be predictable. At times Lindsey seems to lose interest in the game which directly affects his production in a negitive way along with his effort and energy. Strength is a big issue right now and with added strength will also come confidence. He needs to make his outside shot more of a weapon and will need to improve his ball-handling skills as he makes the transition to the wing.
Bottom Line:
Lindsey has all the tools to become a prime time player in the Class of 2014. He has nice length, understands the game, plays with passion and determination, and has first class athleticism. He is young for his class which bodes very well for his future endevours. He has always been able to out-athlete his peers on the floor, yet he has a nice grasp on his basketball future and knows what it takes to step up to the next level.
