Howard is a long and athletic southpaw wing who changes the game on both ends of the floor. He attacks the rim in straight lines, getting downhill and absorbing contact with a physical style. He rises up to finish above the rim and is a lob threat. He also has a translatable shooting stroke and has even shown some flashes of being able to make movement shots (45% 3pt, 75% FT), which is very unusual for someone so young (won’t turn 18 until following his high school graduation) and with such long arms (6-foot-11 wingspan).

In addition to his length and physicality, Howard also has a naturally strong frame that is only going to continue to fill-out. Defensively, he’s engaged, excels with his court coverage, and has good playmaking metrics (2 steals and 0.9 steals). There’s still room for him to clean up some of his angles, but he has a world of potential, both on and off the ball. Offensively, he could take his game to new levels by developing his right hand and decision-making, particularly when he’s in attack mode (1.5 assists. Vs. 1.9 turnovers).

Overall, Howard was one of the biggest stock-risers of the grassroots season. If he can sustain the recent gains he’s shown, and continue to develop on both ends of the floor, he could be one of the most intriguing long-term prospects in the class.
