ANALYSIS: At 6-foot-8, and possessing a 7-foot wingspan with guard skills, Peyton Watson entered his freshman season at UCLA as a highly-anticipated prospect. Even though he still has room to develop, Watson brings great versatility on both sides of the floor. He's also comfortable with the ball in his hands and initiating the offense. On defense, he's shown real promise as a shot-blocker with his length and athleticism. All in all, he is full of tremendous, untapped potential.
