Stanford freshman guard Ebuka Okorie brings a lot to the table on BOTH sides of the ball. He is slight in stature at 6'2" but mitigates it with a 6'6" wingspan and underrated strength and hustle. He's got skill and efficiency abound as a very young freshman prospect, so dig into what we analyzed about him and his game.  Recommendations:  Noah - The very underrated Legend of Korra series Jeffrey - Visiting the Stanford University campus 00:00 Playoffs Talk 19:11 Introducing Ebuka Okorie 25:36 Defense 35:04 Offense 50:07 Comps 59:26 Recommendations Follow us on Twitter/X!
