今年两位大龄次轮秀的介绍,原文来自Tony East不同的两篇文章。总的来说这两个在大学时都是多功能型的球员,还是有希望在NBA成为实用拼图球员的。
1、牛顿的介绍
Tristen Newton's college resume features many different types of seasons. During his final year at East Carolina, he was a point guard asked to create a ton of shots for himself and others. In his first season at Connecticut, he was more of a setup man for his teammates on a spread-out Huskies team. His final campaign at UConn had more scoring and balance, which was needed. The now-Indiana Pacers guard has filled many roles and won two NCAA titles.
特里斯坦·牛顿的大学履历中有许多不同类型的赛季。在东卡罗来纳州立大学的最后一年,他是一名控球后卫,被要求为自己和其他人创造大量投篮机会。在康涅狄格大学的第一个赛季,他更像是球权分散的哈士奇队中的替补。他在康涅狄格大学的最后赛季有更多的得分和平衡,这是必要的。这位现在的印第安纳溜马队后卫已经担任了许多角色,并赢得了两次NCAA冠军。
Now, he's in the NBA, and his role with the Pacers could be anything. The rookie guard, who was selected 49th overall in June's NBA Draft, is on a two-way contract, meaning most of his time will likely come in the G League this season. But if he is needed in year one, or he grows into a full-time NBA player in the future, Newton has several ways that he could help the blue and gold. His background gives him many paths to success.
现在,他在NBA,他在溜马队的角色可以是任何可能。这位新秀后卫在6月份的NBA选秀中排名总第49位,目前签了一份双向合同,这意味着他本赛季的大部分时间可能会在G联赛中度过。但是,如果他在第一年被需要,或者他将来成长为一名全职NBA球员,牛顿有多种方式可以帮助蓝金色球衣球队。他的背景给了他许多成功的途径。
Newton's positional size gives him an advantage while doing multiple different things. In college, he flipped in floaters over defenders, he used his strength to get to spots, and his jumper was often clean since he could rise over his matchup. Most play types Newton executed frequently produced above average efficiency for UConn.
牛顿的位置尺寸使他在做多种不同的事情时具有优势。在大学里,他越过防守队员抛投,他利用自己的力量去抢到位置,而且他的跳投经常是干净利落的,因为他可以在对位时高高跃起。牛顿执行的大多数战术类型经常为康涅狄格大学带来高于平均水平的效率。
For example, 28.8% of his scoring possessions were from pick-and-rolls in which he was the ball handler in 2023-24, per Synergy Sports. The new Pacer scored .901 points per possession in those instances, good for the 76th percentile among all NCAA players. Including instances in which he passed the ball, that number climbs to the 85th percentile.
例如,根据Synergy Sports的数据,他28.8%的得分来自2023-24年担任持球者的挡拆。在这些情况下,新的溜马队员每回合得分为0.901分,在所有NCAA球员中比76%球员要好。包括他传球时的情况,这个数字攀升到比85%球员要好。
The Pacers love to run quick actions, and they often include ball screens. Should Newton get a chance to run the show in the association or the G League, his size and vision will be an advantage. He loves to drive right and shoots much better when going that direction.
溜马队喜欢快速跑动,他们经常使用掩护。如果牛顿有机会在联盟或G联赛中主控,他的体型和视野将是一个优势。他喜欢在右侧行进,在这个方向上投篮更好。
In the open floor, Indiana's preferred place, Newton was effective for the Huskies. The Pacers ranked third in transition frequency last season and had the most efficient transition offense in the playoffs. Newton averaged 1.106 points per possession in transition, good for the 60th percentile. The young guard went through a pre-draft workout with the blue and gold, and those featured many transition drills.
印第安纳球队最喜欢的开放式场合,牛顿在哈士奇队很有效。溜马队上赛季在转换频率上排名第三,是季后赛中转换进攻最高效的球队。在转换进攻中,牛顿平均每次得到1.106分,这比60%的球员要好。这位年轻的后卫参加了蓝金色球衣球队的选秀前试训,其中包括许多转换训练。
While Newton was off the ball more often two seasons ago than his most recent campaign, he still had some successful moments floating on the perimeter. He nailed his catch-and-shoot jumpers, averaging over 1.3 points per possession when unguarded in those moments.
虽然牛顿在两个赛季前持球进攻比他最近的一次更频繁,但他仍然有一些在外围抛投成功的时刻。他接球跳投命中率很高,在无人防守的情况下,平均每次得分超过1.3分。
Like with his drives, Newton is a better shooter from the right side of the floor. He was particularly effective from the right corner this past season, shooting over 60% from that area for the national champions, per CBBAnalytics.
就像他的运球突破一样,牛顿在右侧的投篮更好。根据CBBAnalytics的数据,上个赛季,他在右侧底角的表现尤为出色,为全国冠军队贡献了超过60%的投篮命中率。
Defensively, Newton's size is overwhelming. When he guards smaller players, his frame and speed give him a huge advantage. It was hard to get by him.
防守方面,牛顿的体型让人难以招架。当他防守小个子球员时,他的身材和速度给了他巨大的优势。很难摆脱他。
If the 23-year old gets into an effective defensive position, he's got a chance to make a play or get a stop. Like almost every young player, his team defense needs to be better, but the Florida native is pesky and disruptive against ball handlers on the less glamorous end of the floor.
如果这位23岁的球员能够进入一个有效的防守位置,他就有机会上场或拦截对手。和几乎所有年轻球员一样,他的团队防守还需要改进,但这位佛罗里达人在球场不那么光鲜的一端对持球人来说是令人讨厌和具有破坏性的。
When defending pick-and-rolls, perhaps the most common action in basketball, Newton was effective. When the Indiana rookie was defending the ball handler in those actions, UConn opponents scored under .67 points per possession this past season, which ranked in the 72nd percentile. Newton's size helped him force missed shots and turnovers.
在防守挡拆时,也许是篮球比赛中最常见的操作,牛顿很有效。当这位印第安纳球队的新秀在这些操作中防守持球人时,康涅狄格大学的对手在上个赛季的每次得分低于0.67分,排在球员中低于72%的位置。牛顿的体型帮助他迫使对手投篮不中和失误。
His isolation defense was elite. The 49th overall pick in the most recent NBA Draft ranked in the 96th percentile as an isolation stopper — more evidence that his on-ball defense could be a strength in the pros. It would go a long way toward making him an effective player.
他的单防非常出色。在最近的一次NBA选秀中,这位总第49顺位的球员作为单防防守者排在球员的96%以上,这进一步证明了防守持球人可能是他成为职业球员时的强项。这将大大有助于他成为一名高效的球员。
In general, what stands out on film with Newton is his ability to do a little bit of everything. Because he has size, shooting, and shot creation abilities, he can react to a defense and make the right play. He can defend the ball well, too, and doesn't mess up much in those instances. There isn't a lineup he doesn't fit in since he has positional size and his game is so well-rounded.
总的来说,牛顿在影片中突出的是他任何事情都能做一点的能力。因为他有体型、投篮和投篮机会创造能力,他可以对防守做出反应,做出正确的比赛选择。他也能很好地防守持球人,在那些情况下不会出太大差错。没有阵容是他不适合的,因为他位置上的体型而且他的技巧非常全面。
To become a consistent NBA rotation player, Newton will need to become elite at something. Right now, though, he has a varied skill set, which is valuable for a rookie. There are a ton of ways he could get better and become a solid pro.
要成为一名稳定的NBA轮换球员,牛顿需要在某些方面成为精英。不过,现在他有各种各样的技能,这对新秀来说很有价值。他有很多方式可以变得更好,成为一名可靠的职业选手。
His performance during summer league was underwhelming, though. He struggled shooting the ball for the Pacers despite getting up a solid volume of threes, and his defense was wobbly. But there was improvement along the way, and there's still plenty of hope that the UConn product can become something good in the NBA.
不过,他在夏季联赛中的表现令人失望。尽管有足够的三分出手,他还是很难为溜马队命中投篮,而且他的防守也很不稳定。但一路走来,他的情况是有所改善的,康涅狄格大学的产品仍有很大希望在NBA打出名堂。
"Tristen Newton, tremendous [growth] from game one to game five," Pacers summer league head coach Jannero Pargo said. "Understanding our offense more, playing more confident. Being able to call plays and run our sets and be more comfortable out there." Continuing that growth will be important for Newton in year one.
溜马队夏季联赛主教练杰里米·帕戈说:“特里斯坦·牛顿,从第一场到第五场都取得了巨大的成长。”。“更多地了解我们的进攻,打得更自信。能够指挥战术执行套路,在场上更加自如。”继续这种成长对牛顿来说在第一年很重要。
2、弗里曼的介绍
Enrique Freeman showed exactly what made him a draftable prospect during his summer league play for the Indiana Pacers. The Akron Zips product, who was selected with the 50th overall pick in the 2024 NBA Draft, hustled consistently, grabbed rebounds, defended in space, and was efficient at finishing plays.
恩里克·弗里曼在印第安纳溜马队的夏季联赛中展示了让他成为被选中球员的原因。阿克伦拉链队的产品在2024年NBA选秀中以总第50顺位被选中,他一直在奋力拼搏,抢篮板,防守空档,并且有效率地完成比赛。
That was the sales pitch for the five-year college player, who had a unique journey to make it to the NBA. In college, he was a monster on the boards and in the open floor and was hard to contain around the basket. He added in modern big man skills during his fifth collegiate season.
这就是这位大五球员的卖点,他有着独特的NBA之旅。在大学里,他在篮板上和开阔的地板上都是个怪物,在篮筐周围很难被遏制。在他的第五个大学赛季,他增加了现代大个子球员的技巧。
Now, he's with the Pacers, and he will hope to help the team in the same ways he did in college. "He's a joyful kid. Loves playing the game. Loves helping his teammates, loves to talk. He's a lot like Sheppard in that aspect," Pacers summer league head coach Jannero Pargo said.
现在,他在溜马队,他希望以大学时的方式帮助球队。溜马队夏季联赛主教练杰里米·帕戈说:“他是一个快乐的孩子。喜欢打球。喜欢帮助队友,喜欢说话。在这方面,他很像谢泼德。”
Thankfully for Indiana, the 24-year old had a ton of skills that popped at Akron. He has multiple routes to success in the pros, and starting on a two-way contract, he can develop his skills in the G League.
对印第安纳球队来说值得庆幸的是,这位24岁的球员在阿克伦有很多技能。他在职业联赛中有多条通往成功的路线,从双向合同球员开始,他可以在G联赛中发展自己的技能。
Freeman averaged .98 points per possession on post up, per Synergy Sports. That graded out in the 75th percentile among all college players last season, and while Freeman post ups won't be common in the NBA, he did display his touch around the basket in those instances. He was fluid around the tin and tossed in hook shots when he had space. When the floor opened up, he dunked.
根据Synergy Sports的数据,弗里曼在背身单打时平均每次得0.98分。上赛季,这在所有大学球员中高于75%的球员,虽然弗里曼的背身单打在NBA并不常见,但他确实在这些情况下表现出了投篮手感。他在篮筐周围很流畅,在有投篮空间时投进了勾手。当空间开阔,他会扣篮。
Those finishes, on whatever play type they come from, will be there in the NBA. Freeman won't struggle with efficiency. In fact, he can create his own lane even without getting touches or play calls. The Ohio native produced 1.31 points per possession on put backs, good for the 79th percentile. If his hustle and height keeps allowing him to clear out players at a higher level, he should be able to get some buckets from his teammate's misses.
这些终结,无论是来自哪种打法,都将在NBA出现。弗里曼不会为效率而挣扎。事实上,即使没有在进攻中得到触球机会或得到战术支持,他也可以创建自己的得分路径。这位俄亥俄州土生土长的球员在补篮中每次得到1.31分,好于79%的球员。如果他的拼劲和身高让他能够在更高的水平的比赛中不被淘汰,他应该能够在队友投篮不中后拿到一些得分。
But when applicable, the Pacers and their G League affiliate, the Indiana Mad Ants, should try to get Freeman some touches. On several play types that included the Puerto Rican big man, the Zips found a ton of success this past season.
但在适当的情况下,溜马队和他们的G联赛附属球队印第安纳疯蚁队应该尝试让弗里曼得到一些触球机会。拉链队在上个赛季在含盖了波多黎各大个子的几个打法上取得了大量的成功。
When Freeman rolled to the basket after a screen, he averaged 1.34 points per possession — that graded out in the 88th percentile of all players in the NCAA ranks last season. That is perhaps the most common action in basketball, and Freeman knows it's important to set a good screen and roll hard to the rim.
当弗里曼在掩护后顺下,他平均每次得到1.34分,这在上赛季参与NCAA排名的所有球员中高于88%。这可能是篮球比赛中最常见的动作,弗里曼知道设置一个好的掩护并强硬地向着篮筐顺下很重要。
On cuts, he was similarly excellent. The new Pacer showed off strong timing when flashing from one side of the paint to the other, and he established good positioning when he would fling himself into space. That netted him into the 85th percentile as a cutter, scoring 1.43 points per possession.
在空切方面,他同样表现出色。新的溜马球员在从油漆区的一侧闪到另一侧时展示了强劲的选择时机的能力,当他把自己扔到空位时,他创建了良好的位置。这使他作为切入者时排名在85%球员之上,每次得到1.43分。
In transition, Freeman moves like a gazelle. He's fast for his size, and his effort often helped him beat his man down the floor. He had a moment seemingly every outing where he would force a stop or get a block, then run the floor and get free for a basket. He graded out well as a transition player at Akron, scoring 1.33 points per possession, and that's imperative when playing in a system like Indiana's. They run often and emphasize open floor play in the pre-draft process. Freeman should fit in well when he's flying down the hardwood.
在转换时,弗里曼像瞪羚一样移动。就他的体型而言,他跑得很快,他的努力经常帮助他在地板上击败对手。他似乎每次出场都有逼停或封阻对手的时刻,然后跑过地板,空位投篮得分。作为阿克伦的转换球员,他表现得很好,每次得到1.33分,在印第安纳这样的体系中比赛时,这是必不可少的。他们经常跑动,并在选秀前强调开放式打法。弗里曼在硬木板上飞奔时应该很适应。
All of the above actions are the more common ones for college big men. Run hard, get into the paint, and cut when appropriate. Freeman is no exception. But what changed his fortunes and improved his draft stock was his growth as a more mobile big man with some perimeter skills on both ends of the floor.
以上所有行为都是大学大个子常见的动作。用力奔跑,进入油漆区中,并在适当的时候切入。弗里曼也不例外。但改变了他的命运并提升了他选秀评价的是,他成长为一个更具移动能力的大个子,在球场两端都有一些外线技巧。
Freeman's size and speed combo helped him defend well enough in space, a critical skill at the pro level. He could execute handoffs and pivot without panicking, even when far from the rim. He graded out as an average player on spot ups in his final season with the Zips, and while being average sounds like nothing to write home about, it's significant progress from Freeman — and shooting matters for bigs in the NBA.
弗里曼的体型和速度组合帮助他在空间中很好地防守,这是职业水平比赛中的一项关键技能。即使在远离篮筐的情况下,他也可以不慌不忙地手递手和转身。在拉链队的最后一个赛季,他在定点投篮的方面表现平平,虽然表现平平听起来没什么好大书特书的,但这对弗里曼来说是重大进步,投篮对NBA的大个子来说很重要。
Freeman prefers to attack going left, then turning over his left shoulder. He finished extremely well in the paint — over 70%, per CBBAnalytics — because of those preferences. He knows his spots and how to get to them.
弗里曼更喜欢向左侧进攻,然后转向左肩方向。由于这些偏好,他在油漆区表现得非常好——根据CBBAnalytics的数据,超过70%的球员。他知道自己擅长得分的位置,以及如何进入这些位置。
The rookie pairs that with a strong rebounding ability (12.9 per game) and remarkable efficiency (64.3 true shooting percentage). Because Freeman plays so hard, is effective on the glass, is efficient, and has more stretched out skills, there are several paths to him becoming a helpful NBA player.
这位新秀拥有很强的篮板能力(场均12.9个)和出色的效率(64.3%的真实投篮命中率)。因为弗里曼打得很努力,在篮板上很有效率,效率很高,而且有挺多的延伸技巧,所以他成为一名有用的NBA球员有几种途径。
Maybe his touch and IQ around the rim makes him a useful offensive weapon, like former Pacers forward JaKarr Sampson. Maybe he becomes a dominant rebounder, like recent Indiana bigs Terry Taylor and Oscar Tsheibwe. Freeman's blend of perimeter abilities and open floor smarts could make him a rim-to-rim player with range, much like ex-Pacers Jalen Smith. Any of those outcomes are possible.
也许他在篮下的触球和智商会使他成为一种有用的进攻武器,就像前溜马队前锋贾卡尔·桑普森一样。也许他会成为一名有统治力的篮板手,就像最近印第安纳球队的大个子泰瑞·泰勒和奥斯卡·希布韦一样。弗里曼的外线能力和开阔的地板智慧相结合,可以使他成为一名有射程的全能内线球员,就像前溜马队的杰伦·史密斯一样。任何一种结果都是可能的。
There's a number of ways Freeman's career could go. Starting on a two-way deal, he'll have a chance to pick his path with the Pacers and Mad Ants.
弗里曼的职业生涯有很多发展方向。从双向合同球员开始,他将有机会在溜马队和疯蚁队中选择自己的道路。

In his first season at Connecticut, he was more of a setup man for his teammates on a spread-out Huskies team. His final campaign at UConn had more scoring and balance, which was needed. The now-Indiana Pacers guard has filled many roles and won two NCAA titles.
特里斯坦·牛顿的大学履历中有许多不同类型的赛季。在东卡罗来纳州立大学的最后一年,他是一名控球后卫,被要求为自己和其他人创造大量投篮机会。在康涅狄格大学的第一个赛季,他更像是球权分散的哈士奇队中的替补。他在康涅狄格大学的最后赛季有更多的得分和平衡,这是必要的。这位现在的印第安纳溜马队后卫已经担任了许多角色,并赢得了两次NCAA冠军。

But if he is needed in year one, or he grows into a full-time NBA player in the future, Newton has several ways that he could help the blue and gold. His background gives him many paths to success.
现在,他在NBA,他在溜马队的角色可以是任何可能。这位新秀后卫在6月份的NBA选秀中排名总第49位,目前签了一份双向合同,这意味着他本赛季的大部分时间可能会在G联赛中度过。但是,如果他在第一年被需要,或者他将来成长为一名全职NBA球员,牛顿有多种方式可以帮助蓝金色球衣球队。他的背景给了他许多成功的途径。

例如,根据Synergy Sports的数据,他28.8%的得分来自2023-24年担任持球者的挡拆。在这些情况下,新的溜马队员每回合得分为0.901分,在所有NCAA球员中比76%球员要好。包括他传球时的情况,这个数字攀升到比85%球员要好。

印第安纳球队最喜欢的开放式场合,牛顿在哈士奇队很有效。溜马队上赛季在转换频率上排名第三,是季后赛中转换进攻最高效的球队。在转换进攻中,牛顿平均每次得到1.106分,这比60%的球员要好。这位年轻的后卫参加了蓝金色球衣球队的选秀前试训,其中包括许多转换训练。
While Newton was off the ball more often two seasons ago than his most recent campaign, he still had some successful moments floating on the perimeter. He nailed his catch-and-shoot jumpers, averaging over 1.3 points per possession when unguarded in those moments.
虽然牛顿在两个赛季前持球进攻比他最近的一次更频繁,但他仍然有一些在外围抛投成功的时刻。他接球跳投命中率很高,在无人防守的情况下,平均每次得分超过1.3分。
Like with his drives, Newton is a better shooter from the right side of the floor. He was particularly effective from the right corner this past season, shooting over 60% from that area for the national champions, per CBBAnalytics.
就像他的运球突破一样,牛顿在右侧的投篮更好。根据CBBAnalytics的数据,上个赛季,他在右侧底角的表现尤为出色,为全国冠军队贡献了超过60%的投篮命中率。
Defensively, Newton's size is overwhelming. When he guards smaller players, his frame and speed give him a huge advantage. It was hard to get by him.
防守方面,牛顿的体型让人难以招架。当他防守小个子球员时,他的身材和速度给了他巨大的优势。很难摆脱他。
If the 23-year old gets into an effective defensive position, he's got a chance to make a play or get a stop. Like almost every young player, his team defense needs to be better, but the Florida native is pesky and disruptive against ball handlers on the less glamorous end of the floor.

In general, what stands out on film with Newton is his ability to do a little bit of everything. Because he has size, shooting, and shot creation abilities, he can react to a defense and make the right play. He can defend the ball well, too, and doesn't mess up much in those instances.

总的来说,牛顿在影片中突出的是他任何事情都能做一点的能力。因为他有体型、投篮和投篮机会创造能力,他可以对防守做出反应,做出正确的比赛选择。他也能很好地防守持球人,在那些情况下不会出太大差错。没有阵容是他不适合的,因为他位置上的体型而且他的技巧非常全面。
To become a consistent NBA rotation player, Newton will need to become elite at something. Right now, though, he has a varied skill set, which is valuable for a rookie. There are a ton of ways he could get better and become a solid pro.
要成为一名稳定的NBA轮换球员,牛顿需要在某些方面成为精英。不过,现在他有各种各样的技能,这对新秀来说很有价值。他有很多方式可以变得更好,成为一名可靠的职业选手。
His performance during summer league was underwhelming, though. He struggled shooting the ball for the Pacers despite getting up a solid volume of threes, and his defense was wobbly. But there was improvement along the way, and there's still plenty of hope that the UConn product can become something good in the NBA.
不过,他在夏季联赛中的表现令人失望。尽管有足够的三分出手,他还是很难为溜马队命中投篮,而且他的防守也很不稳定。但一路走来,他的情况是有所改善的,康涅狄格大学的产品仍有很大希望在NBA打出名堂。
"Tristen Newton, tremendous [growth] from game one to game five," Pacers summer league head coach Jannero Pargo said. "Understanding our offense more, playing more confident. Being able to call plays and run our sets and be more comfortable out there." Continuing that growth will be important for Newton in year one.
溜马队夏季联赛主教练杰里米·帕戈说:“特里斯坦·牛顿,从第一场到第五场都取得了巨大的成长。”。“更多地了解我们的进攻,打得更自信。能够指挥战术执行套路,在场上更加自如。”继续这种成长对牛顿来说在第一年很重要。
2、弗里曼的介绍
Enrique Freeman showed exactly what made him a draftable prospect during his summer league play for the Indiana Pacers. The Akron Zips product, who was selected with the 50th overall pick in the 2024 NBA Draft, hustled consistently, grabbed rebounds, defended in space, and was efficient at finishing plays.
恩里克·弗里曼在印第安纳溜马队的夏季联赛中展示了让他成为被选中球员的原因。阿克伦拉链队的产品在2024年NBA选秀中以总第50顺位被选中,他一直在奋力拼搏,抢篮板,防守空档,并且有效率地完成比赛。
That was the sales pitch for the five-year college player, who had a unique journey to make it to the NBA. In college, he was a monster on the boards and in the open floor and was hard to contain around the basket. He added in modern big man skills during his fifth collegiate season.
这就是这位大五球员的卖点,他有着独特的NBA之旅。在大学里,他在篮板上和开阔的地板上都是个怪物,在篮筐周围很难被遏制。在他的第五个大学赛季,他增加了现代大个子球员的技巧。
Now, he's with the Pacers, and he will hope to help the team in the same ways he did in college. "He's a joyful kid. Loves playing the game. Loves helping his teammates, loves to talk. He's a lot like Sheppard in that aspect," Pacers summer league head coach Jannero Pargo said.
现在,他在溜马队,他希望以大学时的方式帮助球队。溜马队夏季联赛主教练杰里米·帕戈说:“他是一个快乐的孩子。喜欢打球。喜欢帮助队友,喜欢说话。在这方面,他很像谢泼德。”
Thankfully for Indiana, the 24-year old had a ton of skills that popped at Akron. He has multiple routes to success in the pros, and starting on a two-way contract, he can develop his skills in the G League.
对印第安纳球队来说值得庆幸的是,这位24岁的球员在阿克伦有很多技能。他在职业联赛中有多条通往成功的路线,从双向合同球员开始,他可以在G联赛中发展自己的技能。
Freeman averaged .98 points per possession on post up, per Synergy Sports. That graded out in the 75th percentile among all college players last season, and while Freeman post ups won't be common in the NBA, he did display his touch around the basket in those instances. He was fluid around the tin and tossed in hook shots when he had space. When the floor opened up, he dunked.
根据Synergy Sports的数据,弗里曼在背身单打时平均每次得0.98分。上赛季,这在所有大学球员中高于75%的球员,虽然弗里曼的背身单打在NBA并不常见,但他确实在这些情况下表现出了投篮手感。他在篮筐周围很流畅,在有投篮空间时投进了勾手。当空间开阔,他会扣篮。
Those finishes, on whatever play type they come from, will be there in the NBA. Freeman won't struggle with efficiency. In fact, he can create his own lane even without getting touches or play calls. The Ohio native produced 1.31 points per possession on put backs, good for the 79th percentile. If his hustle and height keeps allowing him to clear out players at a higher level, he should be able to get some buckets from his teammate's misses.
这些终结,无论是来自哪种打法,都将在NBA出现。弗里曼不会为效率而挣扎。事实上,即使没有在进攻中得到触球机会或得到战术支持,他也可以创建自己的得分路径。这位俄亥俄州土生土长的球员在补篮中每次得到1.31分,好于79%的球员。如果他的拼劲和身高让他能够在更高的水平的比赛中不被淘汰,他应该能够在队友投篮不中后拿到一些得分。
But when applicable, the Pacers and their G League affiliate, the Indiana Mad Ants, should try to get Freeman some touches. On several play types that included the Puerto Rican big man, the Zips found a ton of success this past season.
但在适当的情况下,溜马队和他们的G联赛附属球队印第安纳疯蚁队应该尝试让弗里曼得到一些触球机会。拉链队在上个赛季在含盖了波多黎各大个子的几个打法上取得了大量的成功。
When Freeman rolled to the basket after a screen, he averaged 1.34 points per possession — that graded out in the 88th percentile of all players in the NCAA ranks last season. That is perhaps the most common action in basketball, and Freeman knows it's important to set a good screen and roll hard to the rim.
当弗里曼在掩护后顺下,他平均每次得到1.34分,这在上赛季参与NCAA排名的所有球员中高于88%。这可能是篮球比赛中最常见的动作,弗里曼知道设置一个好的掩护并强硬地向着篮筐顺下很重要。
On cuts, he was similarly excellent. The new Pacer showed off strong timing when flashing from one side of the paint to the other, and he established good positioning when he would fling himself into space. That netted him into the 85th percentile as a cutter, scoring 1.43 points per possession.
在空切方面,他同样表现出色。新的溜马球员在从油漆区的一侧闪到另一侧时展示了强劲的选择时机的能力,当他把自己扔到空位时,他创建了良好的位置。这使他作为切入者时排名在85%球员之上,每次得到1.43分。
In transition, Freeman moves like a gazelle. He's fast for his size, and his effort often helped him beat his man down the floor. He had a moment seemingly every outing where he would force a stop or get a block, then run the floor and get free for a basket. He graded out well as a transition player at Akron, scoring 1.33 points per possession, and that's imperative when playing in a system like Indiana's. They run often and emphasize open floor play in the pre-draft process. Freeman should fit in well when he's flying down the hardwood.
在转换时,弗里曼像瞪羚一样移动。就他的体型而言,他跑得很快,他的努力经常帮助他在地板上击败对手。他似乎每次出场都有逼停或封阻对手的时刻,然后跑过地板,空位投篮得分。作为阿克伦的转换球员,他表现得很好,每次得到1.33分,在印第安纳这样的体系中比赛时,这是必不可少的。他们经常跑动,并在选秀前强调开放式打法。弗里曼在硬木板上飞奔时应该很适应。
All of the above actions are the more common ones for college big men. Run hard, get into the paint, and cut when appropriate. Freeman is no exception. But what changed his fortunes and improved his draft stock was his growth as a more mobile big man with some perimeter skills on both ends of the floor.
以上所有行为都是大学大个子常见的动作。用力奔跑,进入油漆区中,并在适当的时候切入。弗里曼也不例外。但改变了他的命运并提升了他选秀评价的是,他成长为一个更具移动能力的大个子,在球场两端都有一些外线技巧。
Freeman's size and speed combo helped him defend well enough in space, a critical skill at the pro level. He could execute handoffs and pivot without panicking, even when far from the rim. He graded out as an average player on spot ups in his final season with the Zips, and while being average sounds like nothing to write home about, it's significant progress from Freeman — and shooting matters for bigs in the NBA.
弗里曼的体型和速度组合帮助他在空间中很好地防守,这是职业水平比赛中的一项关键技能。即使在远离篮筐的情况下,他也可以不慌不忙地手递手和转身。在拉链队的最后一个赛季,他在定点投篮的方面表现平平,虽然表现平平听起来没什么好大书特书的,但这对弗里曼来说是重大进步,投篮对NBA的大个子来说很重要。
Freeman prefers to attack going left, then turning over his left shoulder. He finished extremely well in the paint — over 70%, per CBBAnalytics — because of those preferences. He knows his spots and how to get to them.
弗里曼更喜欢向左侧进攻,然后转向左肩方向。由于这些偏好,他在油漆区表现得非常好——根据CBBAnalytics的数据,超过70%的球员。他知道自己擅长得分的位置,以及如何进入这些位置。
The rookie pairs that with a strong rebounding ability (12.9 per game) and remarkable efficiency (64.3 true shooting percentage). Because Freeman plays so hard, is effective on the glass, is efficient, and has more stretched out skills, there are several paths to him becoming a helpful NBA player.
这位新秀拥有很强的篮板能力(场均12.9个)和出色的效率(64.3%的真实投篮命中率)。因为弗里曼打得很努力,在篮板上很有效率,效率很高,而且有挺多的延伸技巧,所以他成为一名有用的NBA球员有几种途径。
Maybe his touch and IQ around the rim makes him a useful offensive weapon, like former Pacers forward JaKarr Sampson. Maybe he becomes a dominant rebounder, like recent Indiana bigs Terry Taylor and Oscar Tsheibwe. Freeman's blend of perimeter abilities and open floor smarts could make him a rim-to-rim player with range, much like ex-Pacers Jalen Smith. Any of those outcomes are possible.
也许他在篮下的触球和智商会使他成为一种有用的进攻武器,就像前溜马队前锋贾卡尔·桑普森一样。也许他会成为一名有统治力的篮板手,就像最近印第安纳球队的大个子泰瑞·泰勒和奥斯卡·希布韦一样。弗里曼的外线能力和开阔的地板智慧相结合,可以使他成为一名有射程的全能内线球员,就像前溜马队的杰伦·史密斯一样。任何一种结果都是可能的。
There's a number of ways Freeman's career could go. Starting on a two-way deal, he'll have a chance to pick his path with the Pacers and Mad Ants.
弗里曼的职业生涯有很多发展方向。从双向合同球员开始,他将有机会在溜马队和疯蚁队中选择自己的道路。
