Filipowski’s ability to protect the rim is another worry, particularly due to his current lack of strength and limited vertical athleticism. Teams drafting him should avoid matchups against dominant centers like Joel Embiid, where Filipowski’s negative wingspan could be exposed. His challenges echo those of past ‘tweener’ bigs like Luka Garza and Drew Timme, who faced difficulty establishing consistent roles despite their skill sets.
