Scouting Report​

A skilled lefty forward with extreme shot-making potential, and length to match, Thompson is a tremendously gifted offensively prospect. The southpaw leans back into a high release that is virtually unblocked and allows him to make tough shots with very little separation. He’s capable of making both threes and pull-ups in bunches, and is already a potential shooter. He also has good positional size, measuring in at over 6-foot-7 with shoes on and then a massive 7-foot-2-plus wingspan. The overlap of that length and shooting ability is very rare, especially for such a young player. While his core competency is his ability to make jumpers, we’re gradually starting to see him put more pressure on the rim. He has a terrific right hand in the paint and also the ability to decelerate and maneuver the paint with euros and long strides. He’s young for his grade and turns 17 in August before his senior year of high school. Not surprisingly, he’s also still growing into his body and has a bit of a baby face, which speaks to his still untapped potential. As his frame evolves, he needs to work on being more physical and also cognizant of his body language at times. Overall though, he’s an immense talent.
