Wade on Lubin: "We're thrilled to welcome Ven-Allen to our program. Physically, he stands out with a wingspan over seven feet and a strong, powerful frame. Offensively, he creates mismatchesโhe can score over smaller defenders in the post and has the quickness to drive past bigger ones. He also showed the ability while at Vanderbilt to step out and be a weapon from three-point range and we'll look to build off of that. He's an incredibly efficient scorer, having led his team in field goal percentage each of his first three college seasons. Beyond that, he has a high basketball IQ and will be a tremendous presence in our locker room."
