• decent defensive rebounder for his size

Weaknesses

Athleticism

• lack of height
• not elite wingspan

Offense

• awkward shooting tehnique
• may take unnecesarry shots when he gets overly confident
• should improve his playmaking abilities for Point Guard
• below average left handed layups
• only average passing for his position

Defense

• have trouble if switches to defend bigger opponent
• sometimes stays to close to a player with a ball, so gets overrunned
• needs to improve his running on the open man when defense is being overpassed

Overall

Although he was predicted as second round Draft Pick, he was dropped from every list lately and will have to try to find his place in the NBA through Summer League. With good numbers Joel Berry has made every night in his Senior year, he definitely has a potential to become big star in European basketball. He is one of the best Point Guards in this generation and he will surely make an impact.

Overall

Kerem Kanter is bigman that can play both Power Forward and Center position. He plays good inside game and also can shoot outside the paint, with potential to become solid stretch bigman. He is very active rebounder and good post defender, but he lacks in athleticism, which makes him difficult to guard players outside of his potision.

Kerem will hardly make it close to the level his brother Enes is, so overseas basketball in some mid-level leagues is something he can expect at the beggining of his professional career.
