I don't remember if I have posted this elsewhere yet this year, but this thread is also a good place to look at the players UF has coming rather than just highlight clips.
I think the most information comes from a high school player's production in top level AAU. Alternatively one could argue that for players at top high/prep schools their production playing in more structure with more coaching might give better information. Again I looked up AAU the averages of UF's three signees
Lewis played on the Under Armor circuit. His numbers were:
11 games, 10.5 points, 5.4 rebounds, 3.5 assists, 3.5 TOs, shooting 0.527 on 2s, 0.231 on 3s and 0.833 from the FT line

Mann played for a Nike EYBL last summer. His numbers were:
20 games, 17.3 points, 4.4 rebounds, 2.5 assists, 1.9, TOs shooting 0.514 on 2s, 0.376 on 3s and 0.790 from the FT line.

So to me Mann does not appear to be a Locke level outside shooter. The counter argument is that he took a bunch of 3 point shots and made a Locke level percentage in his 5 peach jam (ie playoff) games, but his team lost all 5 of those games?
I am very unsure about Payne's numbers. Payne (or maybe Paynes) played on the Chandler Parson Addidas team. They show Omar Payne playing 1 game, but a Samuel Payne playing in 10 different games with the same uniform number. So I am not sure so take these with a grain of salt, but I combined the 11 games giving Payne numbers of:
11 games, 8.2 points, 5.5 rebounds, 0.82 assists, 1.0 TOs, shooting 0.649 on 2s, 0.0 on 3s (0-3) and 0.615 on FTs.

So there is no real rebounding machine and possibly no a high percentage outside shooter in this group. Lewis is said to be a top level defender.
