terrapintimes.com reports that Philly native Jaylen Bond might now be a Terps target. ESPN.com evalutes Bond:
Strengths:
Bond plays a very active brand of basketball and has good size. He has very good length coupled with very good leaping ability, which makes him a handful on the offensive boards. He runs the floor well and can finish off the break with a dunk. He has a rapidly developing skill set facing the basket, still utilizing his physical tools to attack the basket while showing a smooth floor game with surprisingly impressive feel for the game. His game reminds some observers of a young version of Miami star and NBA player John Salmons.
Weaknesses:
Bond has to continue to work on maturity issues on the floor, as he has a tendency to lose his cool at times on the floor. He will have to continue to work on his ball-handling skills as well as his perimeter accuracy and range to make the transition to the wing. Bond also will have to work on staying under control offensively and not playing too fast, which makes him turnover prone at times.
Bottom Line:
A blossoming frontcourt player with good athleticism, Bond has great potential because of his hustle, work ethic and basketball IQ.
