Hi guys. Someone knows this player? I need some info about him, cause next year he will play in Italy. I Know that coach Jim Larranaga compare him to David Vanterpool. Is it possible?
Thanks.
 
Funny you should ask, I just saw him play this afternoon :)

I would not consider him a super athlete but he is very strong, finishes well around the hoop because of it, also a pretty good outside shooter. Plays with a lot of intensity, was the leader of his college team this year.
 
Thank you a lot JGX, I ask something 'cause Folarin will play with the team of my town next year. But, we don't understand yet what's his role on the floor. Someone describes him like an all-around who can play in every positions of the backourt, with important minutes in PG position. Considering that, in the "overseas" basketball, roles are more difined...
What is your opinion about this?

Can you compare him with some "overseas" player expecially about his playing-style? Do you think he's a sort of "Vanterpool" as Larranaga said?

Thanks again.

ps: Where did you see him play today afternoon? Summer Leagues? Try-out or, simply, in an old game on TV? Bye.

He played some of each guard position in college. I think he is better off as a shooting guard--even when he played the point he was more of a scorer than a playmaker.

Hard to make a good comparison because the styles of play in the US and Europe are different.

A summer league at Georgetown with a lot of current and recent former college players from the DC area.
