2024 Draft Profile - Donovan Clingan

Kevin O'Connor - The Ringer - March 18th: "Massive interior presence who projects as a lob threat on offense and a paint protector on defense."

Jeff Zillgitt and Scooby Axson - USA Today - March 12th: "A strong big man with capable hands who is tough to defend in the low post; a worker on the glass, especially offensively and can operate in pick-and-rolls as the screener going to the basket."

Jonathan Wasserman - Bleacher Report - March 6th: "Donovan Clingan won’t be for everyone, but he’ll interest specific teams looking to add more physicality and rim protection. At 280 pounds, he’ll continue to finish from the dunker’s spot, catch lobs and put back misses."

Jonathan Givony - ESPN - March 5th: "He even is showing more flashes of ability as a passer and a free throw shooter, indicating there's possibly even more to the 19-year-old's game that can still be unlocked by his future NBA team, something we've seen in UConn warmups, when he shows soft touch beyond the arc."

NBA Draft Room - March 5th: "A mountain of a man who really knows how to defend in the paint and has good touch around the rim. Has decent mobility and plays with intensity. A second injury to his right foot raises concerns."
