Upon returning to Cal for his sophomore year, Ivan Rabb banked on himself improving his game and moving up the draft boards. Unfortunately that didn’t happen, Rabb struggled to add much, if anything to to limited game. Scouts were hoping that he show some ability to shoot from deep but that just never happened.

Despite this, Rabb did show that he is a tenacious rebounder. Rabb also showed that he is capable scoring down low in the paint. The Cal product should put a good shift in as a rotational big man, he will be able to share minutes with 2016 draft picks Jakob Poeltl and Pascal Siakam. I have no doubt that Rabb will develop into a valuable big in the league.
