Skills

Admiral Schofield looks like a monster, and he is one. Schofield plays fast and physical and will not be denied when he has a head of steam on a cut to the basket. He looks like he should’ve been playing tight end for the University of Tennessee and catching touchdown passes running into the checkerboard endzones not playing power forward for his four year college career.

Schofield is a great floor spacer thanks to his 3-point shooting ability as a big man, that is key in the National Basketball Association in this day and age.

Schofield also has some nice touch around the rim, which if he is fed down low could add a dynamic to any team’s offense. Schofield is also a very high quality passer for his size, which bodes well for him in the current day NBA.

His size, 3-point shooting, and hustle ability will make him an instant fan favorite no matter where he lands. His name is also a bonus working in his favor. Schofield never says die when he is chasing a loose ball or rebound, and that is inspiring to watch and something every single fanbase will get behind.

On defense, he works just as hard and matches up well with forwards. Switching will not be a part of his game, but he has the talent that he could work into that skillset at the next level.
