KSR Film Room: Daimion Collins

Typically when evaluating prospects the best way to go about it is by watching full game tape from their high school season. Getting caught up in watching too much AAU or highlight film can be a slippery slope to not getting an accurate look at a player. However, when evaluating Daimion Collins, you almost just have to suspended belief a little bit and let the mixtapes roll.

Attending Atlanta High School, a small public school down in Texas, Collins didn’t play with or against the caliber of players a lot Kentucky recruits see at the prep level. You can still notice some traits on film when watching his high school games, but without sharing the floor with other college players his dominance can be deceiving.
