On3 National Recruiting Analyst Jamie Shaw on Landrew:

There is a steady made to Colben Landrew’s game that is very appealing. He is a low usage player who gives high rewards in his game. Landrew, a former high major wide receiver recruit, has been on a clear upward trajectory. He has great length and natural instincts, especially when it comes to off ball movement and defense. He also knocks down shots consistently, playing on balance and moving with the primary initiator. 

Colben Landrew’s performances steadily continue to be efficient and productive. Nothing really pops off the page with his game, but he seemingly finds himself around positive plays on both ends of the floor.

Landrew is a smooth shooter who plays with great balance. His release is quick and he moves and relocates well with the primary ball handler. The 6-foot-6 wing is an average athlete, but he understands leverage and plays angles very well. Landrew is one whose stock continues to rise.
