[Oregon Ownage]

Ralph Sampson B C- C- B B A
A 7 foot 4 phenom who won college player of the year three times. Has the potential to be the second coming of Moses Malone. Great post scorer. Good rebounder. Amazing at scoring the basketball close range. Good rim protector who can swat shots and get boards. Can guard the post well while having the length to alter mid range shots. Amazing potential

Steve Stipanovich B- C- C B C+ A
A solid low post scorer who will need to improve his mid range shooter to be a main focal on offense. A gifted rebounder that can haul down double digit numbers. Terrific defender who can guard paint well. May never win any awards but could be a dependable starter for a long time. Great potential

Randy Breuer C+ C- D C+ B- B
Breuer is a tall big man who will need to work on his strength and quickness. Overall, good inside scorer. Can be a good rim protector for teams needing to improve their front court. Great rebounder. Has potential to become a starter for a rebuilding team. Will need time to grow. Good potential

Russell Cross B- D- D+ C+ C+ B
Cross is a mobile big man who can score the ball well inside the paint. Terrible shooter. Will need to work on his free throw shooting to see any real minutes. Defensively, he can guard post and has the physical abilities to become a defensive force. Adequate rebounder. Good potential

Greg Kite B- F+ D C B+ C
Kite is a ready now big man who dominates the glass. Has the physical abilities as well as the mental capacity to make plays. Defensively, he will never make the blocks or steals but he can guard his man in one on one matchups. Offensively, his jumper is nonexistent. Can score layups and dunks. Otherwise he won’t do much else besides get offensive rebounds. Solid potential

Mark West C+ D D+ C C+ B
Solid player who needs to improve his footwork downlow to be anything other than a rotation big. Adequate in shot blocking but one on one defense is lacking. Good strength so his improvement will come will coaching and seasoning. Good potential.

Darrell Lockhart C+ D D+ C+ C
Lacks strength for the center position and might be more well suited at PF. Due to his size, he gets overmatched in the post offensively but technique and movement is good to excel against bigger players. Average defender and shot blocker who can help off the bench. Ok potential

Granville Waiters C C- D C+ C+ A
High potential but needs some seasoning to develop his tools to become a very good rounded player. Athletics are not a question for Granville but his one on one skills and technique offensively and defensively. Good jump shot already but lacks the craft under the basket. His defense is over-valued due to his shot blocking ability as one on one is very poor and will allow more baskets than he prevents.

Jim Lampley C+ D+ D- C+ C A
Average offensive threat but needs to work on his finishing ability and jump shot. Needs to hit the weight room to hang with other centers in the DASL and may need to drop down to PF. Average defender who can generate turnovers with his length though. Great potential but needs time.
