A burst athlete who switched from attack to defence in his final year at the Hawks Academy, Harrison Pepper's disposal ratio of 11:5 and a stat line at NAB League level slanted towards marks underlines how he gets a lot of ball in space, much that he creates himself.

He still needs some time in the oven, nonetheless.
