“Ure is a matchup nightmare for everyone. He’s the rare player who, at 6-foot-7, can step outside to 25 feet and shoot effortlessly, or take you down to the paint and go left or right. He’s a pure shooter, and defensively he’s a great shot-blocker with very good timing. I’ve seen very few players who are as well-rounded as he is.”
