Strengths: Although he is a little short for a center, Lalanne has a great wingspan and athleticism to go along with it. He has an improving jump shot that will certainly help him transform into a power forward. At forward, Lalanne would have incredible size with his wingspan instead of the lack of size he has compared to other centers. Lalanne would give an NBA team an athletic big with a great motor and drive to win games.
Weaknesses: Shooting is a big question mark in Lalanne’s game. He also needs to improve his quickness if he wants to turn into a power forward. Lalanne can run and jump with the NBA players, but he will need to up his shooting and defensive abilities and really show it off in the upcoming workouts if he wants to leap into the list of players drafted in late June.
