Edu Santos

Physically very strong, great leaping ability, athletic, with an excellent wingspan. A player with solid technical foundation still to be refined. Despite being a year younger, he was very important in the U17 South American Championship. He runs the transition very well, with ease in scoring by finishing with different types of shots. He is very intense and aggressive.
Currently, he can defend the 4 and the 5 very well, and struggles somewhat against the 3 or the 2. He has tremendous potential, is very active, and covers a lot of ground. Powerful in one-on-one situations from the perimeter going inside. He can pass the ball well, although there is room for improvement. His ceiling is still very high.

Ascending progression, improving his dribbling, his one-on-one play, avoiding defenders and making good finishing decisions. In open-court transition he is very powerful. He participates and secures rebounds on both ends. His defensive energy is good, although his body posture at times needs improvement—he should lower his stance more. His three-point shot is improving, though he still needs to be more consistent. He has played the tournament against players two years older and it has not shown. Without a doubt, he is progressing and wants more.
