The desk already filed the Touray vs. Kamagate head-to-head on this gym. Bartlett sent a wing to No. 16 in 2028. 9.8 points is the number I would defend on Okoth.
What to watch
Can his three-point percentage from the EYBL circuit hold up against high school defenses built to take away his catch-and-shoot looks? How much does his rebounding grow as he fills out his frame?
