Ron Holland Scouting Report | 2024 NBA Draft Breakdowns
Вставка
- Опубліковано 7 лют 2025
- Ron Holland had his share of lows as did the Ignite but still managed to show himself to be a high lottery talent as a defender, slasher and high motor wing. And his skill progression was unrivaled by many in this class despite being over tasked with creation duties. Still major questions in his shot but has the framework of an impactful NBA player.

He is now a Piston. They recently hired a really good shooting coach in Fred Vinson. Hopefully they can turn him into a respectable shooter. His potential is through the roof.
best draft content out there keep going brother
This draft is crazy. everyone is down on it but there are some players with crazy high ceilings
Not him Cody Williams yes
@@Eyescout222it’s the opposite bro if you have ever watched cody he’s honestly really mid
My go-to scout to learn about the newest Piston
I don't claim to be a shooting expert but his 3 point shot looks pretty good. Biggest concern imo is hand placement. The rest of his mechanics look pretty solid. I can buy in on his 3 point upside for sure.
I think it's crazy that a lot of draft analysts have him outside the top 10. He has some serious question marks as a prospect, but he showed way more upside than just about anyone in this class. Seems like people just want to write off athletic G-League Ignite guys cause the track record hasn't been great so far.
He’s one of the bust in this draft
Lol!You answered the question yourself… I’m glad they’re canceling the Ignite project,because they suck at player-development.
@@Leo-nc3yx good thing he's no longer on the Ignite anymore. 1 season with them doesn't completely ruin a prospect
Jalen Green was not a bust.
Kuminga is improving YoY
Honestly, I think he should be the number one prospect. In my opinion he's the only guy that has any sort of superstar celling in this draft. Everyone is talking bout his shooting but he got nice form and his confident with it, you see many players struggle with percantages even in college where you have shorter 3 point line(like for exaple Ant shot less than 30% from three in georgia). He's got the makings of the elite 2-way wing and with lack of super high celling prospect in this draft I would easily take him first.
He’s a bust
@@Eyescout222how
Keep pumping out these scouting vids bro, they are top notch!
Welcome to Detroit!!!
Lot of Pistons fans hating on this pick. I am not one of them. This is our best chance at a superstar.
Who needs Draft Express when you have Hoop Intellect. Ron Holland is definitely a solid prospect and can be a viable two way player depending where he plays.
All these people pretending Holland isn't a top 10 prospect in this draft aren't serious people.
It's hard to project his role on offense. Is he good enough to be a primary creator? If not teams will leave him open all day
@@smoothhoops3739 If teams use him as a handoff threat and he’s able to hit the corner three he’ll be fine and he’s an elite defender. He was also an elite slasher playing against pros at 18. Not everyone needs to be a primary.
@smoothhoops3739 He's not gonna be KD. The free throw efficiency and shooting mechanics show projectability to a competent 3 point shooter.
Remember he's quite young and just led a professional team with no support at 20 points a game.
There's a lot of growth he showed. A lot of reason to believe there is a ton of potential on offence and defence even if he isn't ever gonna be Kyle Korver.
There are very good players that are only average distance shooters.
@@whoosh5469 Also this.
@@whoosh5469 59% at the rim isn't an elite slasher
A long wing who’s a great athlete and puts maximum effort on defense - those guys tend to help your team win in some capacity.
would love to se ROn and Dilly on the Spurs if they get the Toronto pick this year, either of them or Stephon Castle would be great pickups.
4th and 8th picks so might happen! Good call
This guy knows ball
You got two of those guys!
@@Jrfusion08 for about 15 seconds 🥲🥲 I'll take the extra draft capital for a big trade but they didn't have to draft Rob just to trade him
I think we made the right pick
Welcome to the Pistons!
highest ceiling in the draft. Would take a swing on him in the top 3.
Holland would fit so well with charlotte. LaMelo runs the offense with Miller as an secondary ball a handler. Mark Williams on the P&R with Miles and Holland on the wings/corners. Hollands only weakness is his shooting. His defense is NBA ready, he can slash crazy good already and his playmaking is good enough. Plus Charlotte have LaMelo so he wouldnt need to playmake a lot anyway
Don’t want him anywhere near the hornets he wasn’t even the best player on his own team and they already have miles bridges who can pretty much do everything holland can
@@JAYN0CAPP miles bridges is lazy. He has put on weight and is not as dominant as he was
@@MeloCapalot1 that’s a terrible take miles was one of the hardest working players on the team this year he averaged almost 40 minutes a game and still matched his stats from 2 years ago him and miller were literally the only reason we had any kind of offense going and this is without him playing for an entire year don’t know how you get lazy out of that
@@JAYN0CAPP laziness at the rim is what i mean. He has put on weight and doesnt have the same hops anymore
@@MeloCapalot1 he hasn’t played in over a year and he’s playing hella minutes what do you expect lol?
I CANT WAIT for him Ausar to develop consistent jump shots to shut up these disgraceful fans, always complaining! Let Langdon work
That Family Matters instrumental was too tough at the end
His motor and footwork make me a believer that he can be a team’s best wing defender. His youth leaves room for optimism. Portland may have found its next Kersey but it needs a Drexler.
It has a Drexler in Sharpe 😊
This guy reminds me of herbert jones..
Him and Ausar 🫡
My vision
they'll compliment each other nicely, for pistons young forwards sky is the limit
Great analysis gng
Ron HOLLAND number one of draft 2024
I think he's the high ceiling, low floor guy. He could become Jaylen Brown or he could be in stuck in the G League for a while
Why a low floor ? He is a good defender, athlete and he has already a good scoring back. What can be difficult is his three point shot, but I am sure a defensive slasher player can find a spot in the worst team in the league.
Do you plan on doing a scouting report on Yves Missi? Really curious to hear your thoughts on such a raw prospect
Skal Labissiere mentioned
Castle and Ron should start calling up San Antonio realtors
looks like a young derozan to me
I’ve been waiting on this video! Holland is a great prospect that is a jump shot from being an all-star level player down the road. He’s the new, high-demand, perimeter defender that can contain the great perimeter scorers coming up in the NBA today. Expect Detroit, Charlotte, Toronto, and Washington to take a long look at him.
A lot of pistons fans think this league is the same as the OTE league Ausar played in and it's not lol Ron has legit potential.
Who do you think has the bigger defensive upside: Holland or Castle?
Sincerely,
A Desperate Hornets Fan
Almost that time of the year !!! Would love to see Devin Carter next
Wow his defense is legit. I never thought I’d want a player to go to my Spurs just based off of Defense alone 😂
Wow…crazy good defense ngl
I am trying to figure out who has better upside Holland VS. Buzelis?
Probably holland
It holland and it shouldn’t really be a discussion and I’m not even that high on holland
Video on Kyshawn George please
Would be great for Portland at 7 if Matas is unavailable
Hoping we can get him at 14 with all the chatter of him sliding down to the end of the lottery. If Portland walks away with Knecht & Holland that's a monster W for this draft class!
Curious to get some answers on this. Don't you think guys in the G-League may have a smoother transition than college guys as it regards to understanding NBA concepts because the teams they face use those concepts and plays all season ?
Love these scouting report videos man keep up the great work brother mane
Can we do Matas next please
Can he do anything offensively besides dunk in transition?
He can create his own shot
U see that damn handle tho ?
Portland makes sense
Ime loves defense in Houston
San Antonio would be a sneaky good spot for him to learn
Memphis is known for the gritty style.
Washington could use him as well
Hmm. You can probably use him like an Alex Caruso type of a player. Great defensive energy, that's going to be his calling card early on and his way to minutes on the floor. He's a role player at best IMO though you'd hope he'll be prime role player Andrew Wiggins.
Welcome to the Hornets fam! 🐝😀
Rockets at 3?
💯 I support it 👍🏾
Atlanta needs to surprise everyone and take this kid.
Pistons fan here; 24% from 3….
Bro this had me shaking my head 😂🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️
He's 18 and had a 30% usage rate, of course he wasn't going to shoot good
This is what we need! Another player who can’t shoot the ball! Will space the floor perfectly for Cade!
1. this is the best hoops analysis channel
2. this guy is very similar to ausar thompson. -1 on D. +1 on offense. equal athleticism. so i question the fit on this team.
having said that, there is no good fit on this team because it's so far away from having any semblance of balance. so i'm cool with the pick. i like the motor and the emphasis on D. and finally a guy who plays above the rim. feels like the pistons haven't had that since darvin hamm lol...
Ausar cant score like ron. Straight up. He cant shoot off the dirbble or finish with english like Ron. Doesn't even attempt to really. He settles.
Do report on bronny!! 🙏
So his comp not Kuminga or Wiggins ok
How about Aaron Gordon as comparison?
Heat
I truly hope the Hornets get him. He doesn’t have to be a #1 and can be that uber athlete next to Lamar
Lamar???? Who is Lamar? Lol You must of meant Lamelo??? Lol
If you buy the shot, he could be Kawhai 2.0. It doesn't look broken-- some of it is hesitancy/loss of rhythm
He"s. Raw
I actually think he should go 1. I get it he can’t shoot…he’s 18. He played elite defense on a crappy team. Which means he wants to compete. 3.2 stocks in a man’s league. That’s pretty damn good. I think he will be able to shoot. Gonna take awhile. But he’s gonna play early just because he can defend. He grabs rebounds. He can play make a little. I think he is extremely underrated. Just because he can’t shoot.
I actually agree with you. Top 3, IMHO. Assuming we're talking sheer upside, players with the natural talent and ability to potentially becoming a top player on a contending team, which is usually what dictates the Top 4 picks. If that's my main focus as a Franchise, it's Sarr and Holland. That's it. Outside of a few surprise guys, I see no one else in this draft with that kind of potential.
Reminds me of Isaac Okoro
This and they both suck
Reminds me of Mikal bridges defensively
Just let bro fall to 13 🫡
Imagine him on the Magic
The right team has to take him if if the wrong team takes him he will be a bust and out of the league after his first contract is done. But, with the right team picking he has a chance to be a very good player but as I said he has to go to a team that has shown to develop there players
Welcome to the Hornets.
Hopefully my Hawks can take him this year
That Gerald Wallace comp sounds great to us Charlotte fans 😂
Portland fans too
That’s one of the most painful aspects of the expansion. The Kings lost him due to having too many good players. Knew he would be a great player but just needed more time.
Rich man's Rondae Hollis-Jefferson
This guy gets up the court faster than Rodman. They probably gonna have to call him Flash.
Hornets will take him at 6
Unless castle is available
He is like if Jr smith couldn’t shoot
Spurs 8. pick, after they get Topic @ 4.
Harrison Barnes, Hybrid
Kings 2 too draft ron Holland 4sho they need a bigger guy with length able 2 play defense. Him and keegan murray would be shutting teams down
Right now he is mocked to my Jazz hopefully that happens
The Hornets need him bad…he’s a culture setter
I do not understand using a top 5 pick on him unless you say Im drafting strictly on potential and ok with him being a complete bust. There is no feel for the game offensively or defensively. He cant shoot. And lets be real the size is just average for his position. He can only play the 3, the wing span is good not elite. His touch around the rim should show you enough.
No offensive ir defensive feel for the game?
I could not disagree with you more.
If you scouted and came to your conclusion, you don't.
You pick him top 5 if you think you are off base on most of what you said.
Did you watch this scouting video? If you think he's closer to accurate scouting than you, that's why you pick him top 5.
@@SidiousPalp He doesnt run a good pick and roll. He doesnt cut well. He doesnt set screens well. He isnt a good off ball mover becasue he cant shoot. His entire offensive game is head down and go to the rim. That means there is no feel, all athelticism. Defensively he can be good on ball, but he doesnt make good rotations, doesnt play 2 on 1s where he is the 1 guarding two in a rotation setting, not great at backside help at the rim but i think he can eventually be that. Idk what youre looking at here that makes him have good feel.
@sportsandstuff99 Almost everything you are trying to knock him for requires teammates to run plays for him and be effective in their roles and he is one of the youngest players in draft playing in a professional league on a terrible roster with almost no support.
Asked to do everything and then some. I saw him show very impressive development in creating his own shot and offence against higher level comp than essentially anyone else in draft.
You are looking for effective, polished plays requiring effective teammates he didn't have.
Most are looking at the abilities he's demonstrating that can translate to a league with elite supporting talent and top tier coaching.
Hes got a ton of impressive defensive feel, it's shown in this video, did you watch?
He showed a lot of dynamic offensive ability far more than putting his head down and driving.
@@sportsandstuff99He is not such a boom or bust player, he has a decent floor and a high ceiling. He'll be a good NBA defender that can fill a role offensively at worst.
His free throw ability and jump shooting mechanics show he has real potential to be an average NBA 3 point shooter.
I'd be surprised if he were ever above average, but he doesn't need to be to be a good player.
In this draft he should be top 5.
@@SidiousPalp You went through all that defense of Holland as a prospect and came to the conclusion that you'll be surprised if he is ever above average? I think Sarr, Topic, Risacher, Buzelis, Castle, Dilly, Sheppard, and Knecht all have higher floors than Holland. And then Sarr, Topic, Risacher, Castle, and Buzelis all imo will reach a higher level than Holland even if Holland starts to click in the league. That is why I wouldnt consider him top 5. What are you describing with Holland is how I feel about Castle but Castle has shown me incredible feel, even in HS.
I would be the worst gm ever, if you showed me two highlights of the same player jumping over someone, good luck convincing me not to draft him 1
If the shot comes around he might be andrew wiggins with a better motor. If it doesn't he might be completely unplayable on offense
Your videos are the best out there, keep it up.
But you clearly have a really hard time quitting guys who you are high on going into the season. I gave you the same criticism on your Isaiah Collier video.
Holland is a bad shooter, with demonstrably poor touch around the basket. He's a great athlete, but completely lacks feel.
The numbers, and the game film make this abundantly clear. I get that's a disappointing outcome, and you're caught up with the flashes of upside, but this type of prospect has sky high variance.
That Gerald Wallace comp is nuts. Wallace was an elite rebounder in college
If he can become a league average shooter, then maybe he can become Kelly Oubre, who is barely above replacement level for his career.
If his shot creation improves, maybe he can be Lonnie Walker, who is below replacement level.
If his defense improves he can maybe become Jaden McDaniels, who is also below replacement level for his career.
Again, you are doing great videos. I just think you need to be prepared to change your mind when someone struggles so obviously
Sure looks like a future premier defender. Shit is filthy.
Nets gonna get him
Jerami Grant
@raptors
Scottie Barnes 2.0 hopefully my Pistons get him
Yup we definitely got him
Hope spurs take him at 8
mkg with more offensive pootential
