Clint Steindl dunks

Underrated dunker?

Can rock a mean put back (the one against townsville in round 1 was even better!) but i think at this point his ballhandling and footwork arent good enough to get by too many people.

Will only get better though.

I can't wait to see the guy flourish, in another era he'd be a Boomer but I think he has a long way to go before he can be mentioned with Ingles but I'd absolutely love to see him get there!

Yeah I love his dunks, he's a hell of an exciting prospect

I agree with Carfino & JVG, Fearne made a mistake ripping Steindl out of the game when he was on fire with 10 early points.

Didn't score again the rest of the game.

He is well suited to the international game, if he gets a little stronger and keeps working on his D I can see him competing with Ryan Broekhoff for a spot as a specialist shooter with length.

Both those guys hit open shots and dont make mistakes.

He is well suited indeed. For the foreseeable future, the Boomers will always need a Peter Crawford type. And I'm surprised how his defense has improved considering where he was last season.

In regards to dunking, he's just like an Abercrombie who gets high, buy won't throw in anything genuinely spectacular. As he gets more confidence, he may add some flair. I love how he's taking a jab step and driving baseline this year; he didn't even contemplate anything but running in a straight line and around the occasional pick last season.

I remember in the Crocs preseason game in Cairns where he went off for 20 something, he did the same move as the Schencher dunk last week and almost posterised the crap out of a rotating Crocs big (whoever it was). He got at rim level, but just layed it in.

Abercrombie has thrown in some awesome dunks in his time, but we havent really seen those ones since his ankle injury which is sad.

As long as Clint keeps throwing in the odd flying tip jam Ill be happy, but agree it's good to see him driving to the rim too. As he gets stronger he may dunk with a bit more authority.

He goes alright, some good athleticism.

If his form from the last couple of weeks continues he could be a candidate for Most Improved.
