Skilled, energetic Xavier forward who brings scoring touch and hustle
Kerem Kanter was a 6-foot-10 forward for Xavier in the 2017-18 season who quickly became a useful scoring-and-rebounding spark after transferring from Green Bay. He was praised for his soft touch inside, stretch-big potential, and high motor, with reports highlighting his ability to score on the move and handle the ball well for his size. The tradeoff was clear: he was not an elite athlete and could struggle against quicker defenders, but if your team needs a tough, mobile frontcourt piece who plays with energy, he was a strong fit.
