Premium Member Popular Post Sothron Posted July 30 Premium Member Popular Post Report Share Posted July 30 He just turned 21 and put up like 24/8 on almost 58% shooting in the G league last season. He's a real player. Very solid signing by the team. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NBASupes Posted July 30 Report Share Posted July 30 He's talented af but mentally just a couple years away. Maybe he breaks through this year. One of the Gleague guys I really liked over the years. Especially last year. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Popular Post JayBirdHawk Posted July 30 Author Premium Member Popular Post Report Share Posted July 30 Hidden Gems: Dominick Barlow Carries Alluring Potential Late in Draft With a wide array of prospects in this class, Dominick Barlow fits the bill as a player whose draft position could smash the consensus. Barlow, age 19, swerved the collegiate route this season, passing on a slew of Power 5 offers to play professionally for Overtime Elite. In his tenure for OTE, the forward logged averages of 14.6 points, 5.5 rebounds, and 1.4 assists across a 25.0-minute palate. Offensively, Barlow carries an attractive frame and archetype to nurture at the next level. At 6-foot-9, 215 pounds, he fits the bill to operate at the four. Barlow possesses agility and athletic-ability more akin to a small forward, leading to him exploiting more flat-footed defenders. His greatest strength comes at attacking the basket, as his acceleration and vertical ability make him a key cog in the fastbreak and as a rim runner. Barlow showed flashes of rolling off of screens, but that will be a key growing point moving forward. As a shooter, he seldom shot threes, placing a 30.4% clip on 2.3 attempts per game. However, he did a great job forcing whistles (3.9 FGA) to clock a 76.9% recording at the stripe. Defensively, Barlow showed flashes of defensive versatility that franchises crave. With OTE, he averaged 1.1 steals and 1.3 blocks per game, showing activity in the passing lanes and right around the rack. The forward’s 7-foot-3 wingspan elevates his defensive floor as with good lateral quickness, there’s room for him to be a multi-positional defender. He has been an inconsistent perimeter to this point, though. He did carry some woes with fouls, averaging 2.3 per contest, but this was not egregious. The mold is there for Barlow on this side of the floor. https://www.si.com/nba/thunder/draft-coverage/hidden-gems-dominick-barlow-carries-alluring-potential-late-in-draft 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Popular Post Sothron Posted July 30 Premium Member Popular Post Report Share Posted July 30 For everyone bitching about our FO, this is an underrated steal of a 2 way contract. I'm honestly shocked he hasn't gotten a minimum contract at least from some other team. He's a real prospect that is a two way player. And he's a light skinned brother so @RedDawg#8 can have another Hawks DNA player to cheer for! 2 3 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My expectations for 2-way players are very low and he isn't locked into us for the long-term so I'm not giving them kudos before he turns into a real player. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will say, just from risk/reward, this is a home run signing. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he ends up with an actual NBA contract with the Hawks then it's a home run. Right now this is a single with a chance at stealing second. I'm not gonna poo poo the signing, Hawks have to develop and hit on some of these low hanging second round picks that they can turn into solid depth pieces at low cost. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRW Posted July 31 Report Share Posted July 31 Solid pickup. Landry is doing a good job this off-season. I don't blame him for the Bruno situation. I believe the DJ Murray trade was supposed to have gotten done before the new league season started. I blame David Griffin for stalling. Maybe that was his payback for us not taking back Brandon Ingram in the Murray trade. There's no way Landry wanted Zeller. Just my opinion, I'm no expert. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But don't worry, this new one got signed to a 2way in 2024 so he's got Hawks DNA in spades. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
