Joson Sanon

Sanon is a volume scoring wing who is capable of getting his shot at multiple levels. His best weapon over the years has been his mid-range pull-up game, with good lift into his release. Within the last year, we’ve seen his range extend out to the three-point line with the same ability to rise-up into his shot. He’s very adept at getting to his spots and capable of getting downhill in the open floor, but doesn’t put quite as much pressure on the rim when operating within the half-court.

Sanon is most comfortable as the offensive focal point. He’s a potent scorer who can put points on the board in bunches, but has a tendency to hunt his shots with a high-volume style and needs to develop into a more willing ball-mover who can impact the game in ways beyond scoring.

On the opposite end, he tends to defend in spurts right now, showing glimpses of using his size and strength to be effective, but not yet committing to that mentality on a consistent basis. Physically, he measured in at 6-foot-4 without shoes at last June’s Nike Elite 100 with a 6-foot-6 wingspan, giving him solid positional size but somewhat limited length.
