WULBRUN ON MANI: 
"Jon Mani is an exciting and very skilled player at 6-7. He's comfortable at any of the perimeter positions and can create off the bounce for himself and his teammates. I believe he will develop into an elite three-level scorer at the college level. He has tremendous versatility and length, which will allow him to guard multiple positions for us. As a young player, he very effectively uses change of speeds and direction in his attack off the bounce, and plays the game with great passion."
