Precious has all the tools you want from a small forward. He has really nice ball handling skills and can find his teammates with ease, perfecting the no-look pass. He has a high arching outside shot that is just gorgeous to watch along with above average theatric moves near the basket.
He is a solid defender with the tools to cause opposing players fits when driving the lane. Achiuwa has very quick hands on the defensive side of the ball.
Precious will be a hog on the court, soaking up minutes as he has all the tangibles you want from young talent.
Achiuwa will be a top target for the Kansas Jayhawks until he makes his decision, whenever that may be. If the Jayhawks can grab both Hunt and Precious they will have a formidable frontcourt that will be hard to beat. No matter who remains from the 2018 squad.
