An athletic strong big man. He is the new prototypical 4-5. Coach Kent can use him in different situations defensively.

Recruiting Update from upstate:
Adam Dudzinski Adam Dudzinski 6'8" | PF West Genesee | 2021 State NY 6”8. 2021. West Genesse HS
Adam will be going a year of prep at Chafee. Another one of the many of class of 2021 that were hurt by the pandemic. Adam had offers from Sienna and Manhattan as well as interests from a lot of other D1 schools. A year of prep will help him gain strength and put him again high up the radars of D1 programs. He is well-deserving and a player, programs would love to have. An extremely skilled big man who can step out and hit the three consistently or put the ball on the floor. With his length, he can guard multiple positions.
