Brenny

NBA Comparison: Shaquille O’Neal

Favorite Move: The Put Back

Bio: “Shaq-tastic: 29 Points” (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lfg0--GbjVI) Like the Big Diesel, Brenny truly is a man among boys. And what’s even more impressive, he doesn’t even have any formal basketball training. More of a Lax Bro born with the inherent tendency to dominate. But despite his beast-mode capabilities on the court, Brenny has a soft spot, too. In his free time, Brenny keeps it real by watching TrueBlood, going to Walpole for some reason, and studying for the LSAT’s so he can someday make bank off my first divorce.

Strengths: Let’s just say Brenny has a lot of strength. An unstoppable rebounder, he grabs everything off the glass. This allows his teammates to take ill-advised 3’s because they know Brenny will easily get the board and score on the put back. Incredibly persistent. Doesn’t settle for anything less than 2 points once he gets the ball in his hands. An above-average passer, too. Will find open teammates after absorbing double and triple coverage. Defensively, a game changer who alters the way opponents attack the rim.

Must improve: Needs to develop some post moves if he’s going to succeed at the next level against opponents his size.
