Experience: 5 years of NBA experience, most recent in 2021-2022 for 3 games.
What he does well: Cheick Diallo is a good rebounder for the minutes he has played. In his NBA career, he has averaged 13 rebounds per 36 minutes. That’s great for anyone but considering his size? Elite. Diallo has been efficient from the field, shooting a blistering 60% during his NBA career.
What he needs to work on: Everything except for rebounding and close shots. For example, he doesn’t shoot threes. That’s a major hole for a small ball center. Teams could easily help off of him and not be punished. For a guy who lives in the paint, he does not generate many free throw attempts either. He has averaged three free throws per 36 minutes during his NBA career. He was always seen as a “raw” prospect. There are some tools to work with but his time is running out.
