Marquette
B C+ C- C+ B B
Strengths:
Versatile big with good length, strength and a diverse skillset. Ellenson possess surprising ball handling ability for a big, he can pull down a rebound and go coast-to-coast facilitating the break. He has a good feel for the game and is a solid passer for a big, he’s often able to find open teammates from the high post. He’s shown the ability to face up and knock down midrange and three point shots. While far more comfortable operating with his facing the basket, Ellenson also shows potential in post-up situations. He has solid footwork with good touch around the rim. On defense, his long arms give him solid shot blocking ability, and allow him to make up for his lack of speed and athleticism. He was a productive rebounder, averaging nearly 10 boards a game last season.
Weaknesses:
Ellenson is a below average run and jump athlete. His lack of explosiveness raises questions on how effective he can be as a below the rim player. His instincts and intensity on the defensive end leave a lot to be desired. His slow feet keep him from being a good defender and hurt him in the post as well.
