Paul Eboua, a 16 year old small forward from Cameroon currenting playing with Stellazzurra Academy in Italy measured a pretty impressive 6'6.5 in shoes, but his 7'2.5 wingspan is among the longest in our database all-time for a player standing under 6'7. The freakishly long, fairly athletic wing has made noticeable strides as a shooter from when we saw him only a few months ago at the Jordan Brand Classic International game and practices.

Paul Eboua, 6'5, Small Forward, Stella Azzura Academy [Italy], Cameroon, 2000

Strengths:

-Incredibly long. Wingspan much longer than height
-Big hands
-Very athletic. Shows impressive explosiveness already despite being nowhere near his peak physical potential
-Very aggressive offensively. Can put the ball on the floor and get to the rim in a straight line with long strides and a nice first step. Draws fouls.
-Has huge potential defensively as a multi-positional wing stopper with his tremendous tools
-Has only been playing basketball for a short time.

Weaknesses:
-Frame is very immature. Lack of strength affects him significantly on both ends of the floor.
-Extremely raw on both ends of the floor
-Ball-handling skills are a work in progress. Struggles to change directions with the ball.
-Shooting stroke is somewhat mechanical. Has a ways to go in terms of ironing out his jumper and making it more fluid and natural
-Release point doesn't look bad but splays his misses all over the place. Touch appears to be average

Outlook: Eboua looks the part of a high-level prospect with his pterodactyl wingspan and frame that should fill out nicely in time. He's only been playing basketball for a few years now and that shows with how raw he is on both ends of the floor. Only had 2 points on 0-4 shooting in the game. With that said, he shows some natural aggressiveness, competitiveness and instincts that bode well for his ability to continue to improve and reach his very high potential down the road.
