Re: Luke Nevill
Just watched Nevill get 26 and 10 in a blowout loss against UNLV; he was pretty impressive. He showed a lot of different post moves, using both hands; seems pretty effective there. He had some nice hooks and some close Duncan bank jumpers. I didn't see much range from him, and the few times he was in the high-post, he looked uncomfortable. Luke seems to be a solid rebounder, but not an impressive shotblocker for his size. He's not very athletic, but he gets up and down the court well enough. Seems to play with a high level of confidence. He looks like can add a decent amount of weight to his frame. If he's 250 right now, I would imagine he can put on another 10-15 easily.
I'm not sure if Hibbert is really that much better. Roy is bigger and probably better on D, but I think Luke is more effective scoring near the basket.
I think he'll end up being a mid-late 1st-rounder whenever he comes out. I think he's too slow to go lotto, but the fact he can score at his size will get him guaranteed money.
