Draft Scouting Report

Pro Comparison: Kel'el Ware

Summary

Cenac had been a widely known high school prospect since he was an underclassman, but started to make a major jump in the summer before his senior season. His rare overlap of size, length, athleticism and budding skill provides him with all the necessary tools to be a versatile two-way big man, but there is still a gap between his potential and his production. The expectation and hope is that a year under Kelvin Sampson at Houston can improve both his approach to the game and overall reliability.

About

Consensus top ten prospect in the national Class of 2025.
Led Link Academy to the EYBL Scholastic Tournament Championship as a senior.
MVP of the 20244 NBA Player’s Association Top 100 Camp.

Strengths

Long (7-4-plus wingspan) and athletic, particularly for his size. Gets off his feet with ease as a leaper and fluid mover.
Developing offensive skill-set that extends to the arc to match his ability to be a lob threat and emphatic dunker at the rim.
Similarly versatile defensive tools with his potential to protect the rim and move his feet on the perimeter.

Weaknesses

His potential exceeds his production, particularly when it comes to his overall consistency.
Can be inefficient offensively, settling for low-percentage shots and suspect decisions with the ball.
Overall feel for the game and the consistency of his motor are both somewhat uncertain.
