Strengths: Quite simply, Jeronne Maymon is a man. He is super strong, one of the strongest in college basketball. He is tough inside, and can finish with both hands. He has a great motor, and doesn't quit on any play. Jeronne is also a smart offensive player. He doesn't take shots he can't make, and is an above average passer at his position. Jeronne has a quick first step that helps him get to the basket when he faces up, and has a decent pump fake that can help him draw contact on shots. Again, Jeronne can finish around the rim as well as anyone. He shot 56% from the field, while being the second leading scorer on the team. He also is a pretty good free throw shooter, shooting 66% last year, improving by over 40% from 2010-2011. Jeronne is a very good rebounder, and great on the offensive glass. He was fourth in offensive rebounding percentage, and was top five in rebounds per game for the conference. Jeronne is also very good at not fouling. He averaged three fouls per game in almost thirty minutes a night, pretty good for a big man like him. Jeronne uses his athletic ability to finish around the paint, and is a tough one on one post defender.
Weaknesses: Jeronne doesn't have a lot of posts move. He mostly uses his strength to finish shots, and struggled in double teams last year. He also is prone to get his shot block, being barely 6'6, and while has good athleticism, can't elevate over bigger defenders. He must improve against double teams also, sometimes forcing bad shots trying to make a move to the hoop. His biggest weakness is his inability to shoot an outside jumper. It limits his offensive game and teams can slouch off him in the high and low post when he wants to attack. He can't block shots, only 10 last year, because he has little wingspan. His help defense is above average, but he does a good job on switches and uses his surprising first step to funnel dribblers into the help when he has to play a guard. Jeronne also goes left too much when driving, and must improve his right hand dribbling to improve his attack.
Final Thoughts: Jeronne improved mightily last year, and seems sometimes to have super human strength. He's a beast on the boards, and shooting 56% being the second leading scorer on the team shows his ability to finish. Jeronne is just an average defender, and won't be great because of his body, but can become better on the help defense. Jeronne doesn't need a three point shot, but a 15 footer would do wonders on the board. He's the leader of the team, and the soul of the team. He doesn't quit, has a high motor, and works as hard as anybody on the team, showing how valuable he is. Jeronne was an All-SEC player last year, and can be even better for his senior season.
