2024 Draft Profile - Donovan Clingan

NBA Draft Room - August 19: "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."

Sam Vecenie - The Athletic - August 7th: "He’s so good on defense in drop-coverage situations that I think he reaches the threshold to play at an elite level in that setting in the NBA. Clingan also has a budding jumper that looks good, and may allow him to take another step forward as a prospect if he can translate it to games."

Kevin O'Connor - The Ringer - August 2nd: "At 7-foot-2 with a 7-foot-7 wingspan, Clingan can block shots without even leaving his feet. Opponents avoid him when he’s lurking near the paint, not just because he’s imposing, but because he also tends to be in the right position."

Jonathan Wasserman - Bleacher Report - July 19th: "They'll put stock into his impact, outrageous production and the likelihood that his signature strengths can translate, based on how effective his 7'2", 265-pound frame, mobility and instincts can be for interior scoring, putting back misses and rim protection."
