Va. Townes is long and lanky, one of the players I mentioned before who has not yet filled out his frame. And for the other interior players in attendance, that's a good thing.
Townes is a force on defense.
His long arms, timing and athletic ability make him a natural shot-blocker, and the same traits make him a good rebounder. On offense, he has a nice looking stroke on his shot, and was not afraid to take a 17-foot jump shot. While I did not see him make any of those, his motion is better than most 6-9 sophomore forwards I've seen. His strength on offense, however, is simply having a knack for finding the ball. As this guy matures and fills out, keep an eye on him.
