What the analysts are saying

• "He's an above-average athlete with a solid feel for the game, and as long as he's not forcing up shots, he adds value by spacing the floor and playmaking a bit off the dribble. Defensively, he's rangy, often around the ball, and capable of holding his own. With no elite strength but no glaring holes in his game either, Weatherspoon has a fairly clear pathway to becoming a useful glue guy in the pros." - Sports Illustrated's Jeremy Woo
