[David Struch]

Projection and Comparison

Francis has many of the offensive tools to be a top-six forward at the next level. However, he will need to improve his strength and his speed in order to be able to play his style at the next level. Like many players ranked in this area of the draft, there are skills but also areas that need improvement. His defensive game will certainly help him if he can keep improving it. Francis’ game is reminiscent of Tyler Ennis, however, this is a stylistic comparison only and not one based on skill and potential.
