Las Vegas Easter Classic

scout
In our unofficial ranking of the Easter Classic prospects, Luke Babbitt comes in just a notch behind Lee. Babbitt, a 6-7 junior power forward from Reno (Nev.) Galena, is going to be a terrific college player. He might not ever leave early for the pros, as he doesn’t have the size/athleticism that the NBA is looking for, but he possesses a very high skill level. Babbitt’s shot looks even better today than it did in December.

Babbitt’s got a very soft touch and his range is now well beyond the stripe. The one area where we think he needs to improve is rebounding. He’s not going to jump over people, so he needs to get better with his positional rebounding. But that’s a minor quibble for such a talented prospect.
