He is one of the most skilled players in the draft. That being said, it’s all about potential for him going forward in the league Still can't believe Lofton went undrafted, he's a bully in the paint..
He can definitely carve out a nice nba career for himself if and when he gets in better shape but he has the skills and natural athleticism for sure to be a good big man
But yea dude can ball, i noticed tho he lacks pass vision there was many times where a defender from the wing came in to help and his teammate was left wide open from 3 , if he can improve on his passing and passing vision that would only help him as it would force players to stay on there man instead of helping on the double/triple team which could lead to more one on ones for him in the paint
The footwork in the post is insane. It looks simple but he's taking full advantage of every single inch of the floor under the paint. He's moving dudes out his way with strength or with footwork. He's going to be a problem
Only if Zion Williamson had his skill set he would be less injury prone. I love lofton post game, excellent footwork. I'm pretty sure he will trim down if he decides to enter the NBA draft
@@jeffhardy6333 the LMAO at the end of your response is the typical UA-camr who doesn't have nothing intelligent to say. If you watch Zion Williamson game you know what nevermind only hoopers know that fundamentals can reduce the risk of being injured but lmao as you continue to do so
@@brother_Tennessee again, his skill set isn’t the reason why he’s injured. His poor conditioning is the reason. You can’t have a 300lbs player jumping out of the gym. Had he kept his Duke body he’d be fine. But you’re intelligent so whatever lmao
My comparisons for Kenneth Lofton, Jr. Is Charles Barkley and/or Zach Randolph... undersized power forward that scores in the paint, has good footwork and can make a jumpshot out to 20 feet...
He's so much more crafty and versatile offensively than you would think being an undrafted big boi, but he knows when and how to play bully ball. But he needs to be able to pass and play passable defense to get NBA minutes. He's definitely worth a two-way contract and might be the shiniest diamond in the rough. Really good post players are usually double teamed in the NBA, and more effective double teams than he faced in college. Gotta find the open man. And if the words "lateral quickness" and "pick and roll" mean anything to you, you know why his defense is a concern. Imagine him trying to switch onto any top 10 point guard. But god damn you want to root for this guy. Instant fan favorite.
I think his trainers will have him right physically if he decides to enter the draft. I'm in total agreement with you, he is zion Williamson without the explosive athletic ability. I wish Zion Williamson had his post game and decent mid range jumper
He cant hang w the pace of a nba game at his current weight , every center in the nba now prioritizes being very lean vs in the past where they were more bulky
He's a monster. Junior needs ONE more year at LA TECH to sharpen up his mid-range game and shoot 28-30% from three with at least an attempt or two per game. If he goes back for a year, Tech'll dance. Big time. Bet the farm.
He should stay at LA.Tech. Sometimes the best opportunity for developing the necessary skills and making a mark is well within reach at the school who gave him the opportunity and developed his skills. He now has his game at the highest level and dominating his conference will ultimately put his name in a lot of GM’s mind. But if looks to transfer (Old-Dominion, Syracuse and Grand Canyon University in ARIZONA and the Wildcats of ARIZONA is looking at LOFTON with heavy intentions.
He has a throwback skill set. Not sure how effective he'll be at the next level. He's kinda the undesirable tweener forward. I worry about him being exposed in the NBA, if he can't stretch the floor it may be a short career. What position does he guard? PF or C? I'd love to be wrong I just don't see the appeal or upside.
@@sng2versitile668 combine scrimmages are pretty irrelevant, there is no defense being played whatsoever. Hardly any actual plays or PnR's. He'll be picked apart when switching onto a guard let alone a center. Like I said I'd love to be wrong, but until I see otherwise I'm not betting on him being around long. He's a less athletic Zach Randolph
Wait a minute, you forgot to show him winning the Nathan's hot dog eating contest, and the trip to Texas where he finished the 72 oz steak dinner - 3 times consecutively. Those are high lites.
@@mylesmcneal9626 Myles, this kid has soft hands, excellent footwork and a combative style of play. That's not enough at the next level, nobody is waiting for him after he's gassed 3 minutes into the game. Today's NBA is to fast for him and his bullishness won't work at that level. Dozens of equally talented players have eaten themselves out of the League. Charles is one of a kind!
People love to talk about how tall he's not for his position, as though he made it to D1 level without EVER matching up against anyone taller than himself. Yea he's not as tall as people would like in comparison to most nba 4's, height doesnt solely make a good big man. We've seen 7 footers who are ass, and 6'6' forwards get buckets....or maybe I'm the only one idk
I mean there's HOFer undersized big men like Dave Debusschere (6'6, PF), Unseld (6'7, C), Barkley (6'5, PF) Rodman (6'7, PF), Green (6'5, PF) and all of them played both PF or C during their career
We have all sinned and fallen short of Gods glory sin is terrible because of sin we are separated from God but gladly here is the good news Jesus Christ came and walked this earth for everyone taught us the perfect way to live and how we should live and he died for our sins because we need a sacrifice to pay the price for our sins since our sins deserve hell if we live in sin but also more good news Jesus rose from the dead three days later we have to leave the sin behind and put it away and live new with Jesus this world is like a vapor it passes away but your eternity is forever and it is up to you what you want to do with it Jesus Christ is coming soon….
Probably not lofton has a back to the basket low to the ground game unlike zion who is basically a highyer if zion played like lofton he wouldnt ve having these injury problems cause he wouldn't put as much hassle on his lower body
He is one of the most skilled players in the draft. That being said, it’s all about potential for him going forward in the league

Zach Randolph clone, and y’all sleeping on his handles too. Big man can dribble .
Zach randolph was 6’10
But yea dude can ball, i noticed tho he lacks pass vision there was many times where a defender from the wing came in to help and his teammate was left wide open from 3 , if he can improve on his passing and passing vision that would only help him as it would force players to stay on there man instead of helping on the double/triple team which could lead to more one on ones for him in the paint

Zion is way more skilled than this dude. You have no idea what youre talking about. Stop pretending you do
He’s gonna have a great fun story smh. Diamond 💎
If he plays this hard in the NBA, he will be the most popular player in the league. People miss this post play like this.
you have Jokic, Embiid, and basically 3 big men was at the top of the MVP, the post play is already back
He in memphis now, so Z-Bo needs to teach him everything he knows.
Im rooting for this dude!!!!!!! He gets Busy!!!!!!
He will be a nightmare for bigs in the NBA. He just has to stay in shape
I’m hoping this kid stays healthy. Would love to see him play for a long time, I’m rooting for him
Ken Lofton Jr is a beast. I hope he balls out in the NBA.

The guy is going the same pump fake everytime but everybody can't guard him. That is mastery for you
Dude moves smoothly down low unlike other bigs who struggle to move their defenders. I just hope he can do that in the NBA too
you have Jokic, Embiid, Giannis, AD in this league, it will not be as easy for them
If he loses 10-15 more pounds and tones up his muscle mass a bit he can be a very solid NBA player...
I think his trainers will have him right physically if he decides to enter the draft. I'm in total agreement with you, he is zion Williamson without the explosive athletic ability. I wish Zion Williamson had his post game and decent mid range jumper
He good on weight but if he tones it up he’s gonna be trouble in the league
He'll be fine the way he is as long as he pass all the physical tests.
He cant hang w the pace of a nba game at his current weight , every center in the nba now prioritizes being very lean vs in the past where they were more bulky
He lost 25!
This going be scary draft this year about wake up the league 🔥
Would love to have him play in Memphis, backup big man for JJJ
Got your wish

Welcome to Memphis 💪🏾🌪️
3” more would have made him a No. 1 nba draft pick, but he’s still unstoppable and will be a steal for NBA teams, late 1st round pick.
Definitely not a No.1 pick, he’s not bullying grown men😭love his game tho
@@drejones2426 I totally agree with you bro you think Joel Embiid is going to lay Homie bully him under the basket😂😂😂😂
@@drejones2426 I honestly think someone like grant williams can easily guard him
At his current body fat percentage, no one is drafting him.
@@mohamedadan6678 his body put you in jail I don’t care if you Rudy Gobert. He can bully anyone
I don’t even like basketball but I like watching the hefty guys using that body to there advantage!

90s basketball thus dude is a beast
I goto a school in the conference USA. Wish I would’ve saw this dude play in college. Oh well. GO GRIZ.
This man will be scary when he dedicates himself to the weight room.
I hope he get drafted !!!!! Good luck
Let him play for the grizzlies
Actually ended up getting a 2way contract with them lol

He gotta motor
ya i like him he’s dope
He remind me of Dejuan Blair from Pitt but with a “LV duffle bag” full of moves !
IM FROM PORT ARTHUR TEXAS REPRESENT IT TILL IM DEEEAD
200% NBA ready

@@daviderwin4556 At the beginning there were no defense but with the scrimmage the defense showed up more and more
Also Barkley was a bad defender too
This guy is a bigger version of Bonzi Wells. My only concern is if he is strong enough to score and rebound against NBA big men in the pain.
I don't see why not. He certainly has the weight. Dudes a lot slimmer than him play the PF position..
It doesn't get any more American than this 😉
He's a shorter version of Sean May..
He's a Grizzlies 🐻
This is Charles barkley
League bound
Chuck Jr
Want to see him in the SEC
...at Mizzou
Zion with a better power train and upgraded transmission lol

Man we lefties are like that

so a better
