HIS GAME
Pros: Andray Blatche is a long athletic prospect with good potential. He plays well facing the basket and can put the ball on the floor as he has a great handle for someone his size. He has shown a good outside shot but needs to work on his consistency. Blatche gets off the floor quickly and effectively blocks or alter shots. He runs the floor well and gets rebounds due to his length and leaping ability. He is drawing comparisons to Steven Hunter.

Blatche is looking to make the jump from high school to the NBA. (rivals.com)

Cons: Blatche needs to play with more effort and consistency. He needs to work on being a consistent shooter, but he has all the physical tools to make it big in the NBA one day, but it just won’t be anytime soon.
