Evaluation
December, 2008: Frankoski is a long and lean wing that is a terrific shooter. He is a specialist that can knock down the open three off the catch with ease. He sprints the lane in transition where he spots up, comes off screens and reads penetration in the half court to get off his shot. He has a quick trigger and knows his job when he enters the game. He will make limited moves off the dribble. He likes to go between the legs and finish with a mid range pull up. Frankoski plays with energy and emotion as well.
April, 2008: This wiry combo guard has a tremendously high basketball IQ and impressive work ethic. It translates well in his game as he never takes a possession off. Best quality may be his jumper though as he is an absolute sniper all the way out to 24 feet. He has tremendous grades and will most likely spurn higher offers to play in the Patriot League.
