Has a tendency to go to his jump hook instead of a more emphatic move to the rim. Not always aggressive enough finishing around the basket. Has decent shooting mechanics, but just couldn't find the results. Struggled to make shots from the perimeter all weekend. Possesses just an average combination of length and explosiveness for a top-shelf NBA center prospect. Very good feel for moving off the ball, setting screens, rolling and cutting to the basket Not a high flyer but is often the first one to the ball as it comes off the rim Uses a variety of different angles and moves to get his shots off. Fundamentally sound and extremely well coached. Intelligent, mature and polished big man Very nimble and mobile for a player his size. Has a strong, proportioned frame that will fill out really well in time Ample size for a center at around 7-feet tall.

State next season to play under Mark Gottfried, where he has not yet been cleared to compete by the NCAA. He has already spent two seasons with Turkish club Fenerbahce Ulker, and despite some controversy surrounding his amatuer status, he will head to N.C. Yurtseven competes on the defensive end of the floor and is a shot blocking presence, but like most of the bigs on this list he will need to fill out his frame and get stronger so he is no overmatched at the next level. He has a really good feel for the game and knows where to position himself off the ball for easy cuts and dump offs. Yurtseven is also an excellent rebounder, and although he is not the greatest athlete, he has very solid hands and instincts. He has a go to jump hook in the post that he likes to get to, and he possesses nimble footwork for a player of his size which he showcased in pick and roll situations. He has a unique blend of skills for an 18 year-old 7 footer, who can score with his back to the basket using either hand. Yurtseven had a strong showing at the the U18 European Championship last year, and although he only played 18 minutes per game at the U20s, playing up by nearly two years, he posted per-40 averages of 23 points, 12.3 rebounds, and 3.2 blocks.

7 STL, 1.4 BLK, 3.1 OREB, 59.2 FG%ġ8-year-old Turkish Center Omer Yurtseven was one of the more highly touted international prospects coming into the tournament, and he did not disappoint.
