Delaware’s 6-6 freshman forward still searching for lift-off
In his Delaware tenure, Octavius Flowers has shown the profile of a long, young forward with upside at 6-6 and 200 pounds, but his on-court production has been modest: 2.4 points, 0.9 rebounds and 0.2 assists per game with a 32.8% field-goal mark. The appeal is the frame, position flexibility and freshman growth curve more than the box score right now, so he looks like a development project rather than an instant-impact fit. If you need raw upside and patience, he’s interesting; if you need immediate production, not yet.
