Jonathan Jeanne is an interesting prospect, his physical tools are what make him a fringe first round pick, but he will need to be developed much like Gobert has been in Utah. Jeanne has similar tools to Gobert, both are 7'2" with huge wingspans, but Gobert had nearly 40 more pounds on Jeanne when he was drafted. Jeanne shows the ability to rebound, defend, catch lobs, and even shoot from outside (Gobert has yet to develop a jump shot), but he will need time to bulk up his body to handle the rigors of the NBA. Jeanne also lacks some athleticism, he is a good runner and as mentioned, can catch and finish lobs in space, but overall he lacks lateral quickness and bounce. Jeanne has all the tools and potential to be a Gobert like player in the future, but it'll require some patience from whichever team drafts him.
