Ace Bailey, F, Rutgers
Height: 6-10 • Weight: 210 • Class: First year student • Age: 18
Summary: Bailey is a ridiculous machine, capable of splashing disputed sweaters from each place on the ground with the boastful bucket back. But its consistency of shooting, as well as its raw edges as a creator and defender of shooting, need to sand to transform it into a complete star.

Strength
Traction shot: Bailey can drain the dribble riders from anywhere against any type of defense. He can hit the meager by going to his right or on the left, the Fadeways after stopping on a penny and reversals of the post. He has an irrational confidence in him with his ability to get up and shoot on the situation.
Sweet key: When he puts himself as a threwter and 3 years old, it seems that nothing can stop him with his quick and fast shooting out. And Bailey has a plumey touch on shots between the floats with floats and hook.

Athletics: Bailey is height, length, speed, and he is explosive in space, whether cutting in the half-habit or taking the break for the lob's chances.
Versatility: Even if it never becomes an engine as a ball creator, it can be used in different ways, whether it is being executed, as a cutter, or as a pick-And-pop screeter.

Engine: Play with energy at all times, jostled for attacking opportunities. And in defense, he finds himself in transition and jumps via the tracks in half-habit.
Adaptability: He improved during his first -year season in Rutgers, especially with his defense efforts, his desire to pass and his price of 3 points.
Concern
Shooting creation: His ball handling is loose, limiting his ability to create regularly against the defined defenses and to go to the basket. And the vision of the tunnel is a common phenomenon for him, so he forces disputed shots instead of finding open teammates. And when he passes, he is often out of target. If he wants to become an All-Star, it is essential that he improves in this category.

Finish on the way: Although athletic when he jumped into space, he is always nervous and can be hit with his planned driving path. He only made 42.1% of his Layups in half-habit, by Synergie; It is undeniable that his strength must improve.
Consistency of the shooting: Has a great touch but striated results of 3. Even on the line, he only made 54.9% of his free throws on his first 13 college games before closing the rest of the season at 82.1%.
Shooting selection: Although it has been effective on 2S Pull-UP, more than two thirds of its total shots come from mid-range. Will he be able to extend his range? Will he be ready to change his shooting diet? Could it develop the ability to go more often to the basket?

Defense: Must add muscle to hold his ground defensively against the wings of the stronger NBA, and he still has to improve his fundamentals. Sometimes it seems that he does not know where to be due to a lack of conscience.
