Draft Sites Say
"Measuring at 6’10’ and 225 pounds Leaf has excellent size at the power forward position. He is not the most physically imposing player and could benefit from some added strength which would help him in the rebounding, defense, and finishing departments. While Leaf lacks ideal strength and physicality on the interior, he moves fluidly for someone his size, and has the explosiveness and athleticism to run the floor and finish above the rim in space. He certainly benefited from playing in an up-tempo pace and space style alongside Lonzo Ball where he ranked in the 89th percentile in transition offense (per Synergy), but his ability to get up and down the court should translate well at the NBA level."
"A versatile offensive player who shows the ability to play both inside and out … He has a European-like skillset and does a great job of exploiting mismatches on offense … Although he is not an advanced post player at this stage in his career, he has shown flashes of good footwork and a variety of post moves from the block. . . The biggest area of concern for Leaf at this point is his lack of strength … He needs to add leg and core strength to better absorb contact and maintain balance … The good news is that he is only 19 years old and that there’s plenty of time for his frame to fill out."
