Stretch-Forward Scorer Who Carried USC’s Offense
Boatwright was a 6-foot-10 USC forward whose calling card was elite spacing and shot-making; in the 2018-19 season he averaged 18.2 points and 6.6 rebounds, shot 43.4% from three, and tied a Pac-12 record with 10 threes in a game. He also finished his USC career with 1,542 points and 243 made threes, while overcoming multiple early injuries and a knee surgery comeback to become a captain and go-to scorer. If you want a big who can punish defenses from deep, he’s your guy; if you need rim protection or brute-force interior play, that’s not his lane.
