NBA scouts have been following Stutz this year. Rating services have him as high as the #9 post player in the nation this year. That's not enough to get him drafted, but the thought is that he will be invited to the development league.
Stutz appears to be a "late bloomer" in growing into his body and developing coordination through all 84 inches. The opinion I've seen that seems likely is that Stutz is about 3 years and 25-30 pounds away from the NBA.
Stutz can run the court. He can dribble and drive. He's a bit slow with reactions and that gets him called for a lot of fouls that quicker player don't get called. His quickness has been improving significantly every year.
A lot of rational people are predicting Stutz will end up in the NBA, but it will take a couple of years for him to get there.
