South Carolina Freshman's Raw Power and Rim Protection Potential
As a 6-8, 280-pound freshman forward for the South Carolina Gamecocks, Ta'Quan Woodley brings bruising physicality and elite shot-blocking instincts from his high school days, where he averaged 10 rebounds and 71 blocks as a junior on a 29-1 Camden squad[2][3]. Limited to 12 minutes per game in 13 appearances (1.6 PTS, 2.8 REB, 1 BLK, 52.9% FG)[4], his massive frame and motor make him a developmental gem for teams needing interior toughness and rebounding—perfect fit if you value high-upside bigs over instant production, with no injury flags yet[1][2].
