Re: '23 F David Fuchs (URI)

Watching his tapes, he has skills that are so different than any big man on the roster. His fade away jumper is beautiful and his 3pt shot is very solid. He can finish at the rim better than anyone we had last season and his defense looks solid. I think Fuchs is going to be a special player.
