| Defensively dominant, he was a great rebounder and shot blocker who was very physical under the hoop. Athletic for a guy with his supreme size, he showed superb footwork and coordination in the paint. Was gritty and he could shut opponents down. Flashed great hands as a passer. Was savvy, with some overlooked talent as a scorer. His minutes got limited because he was prone to fouling and had a tendency to wear down fairly quickly (and he had a long history of durability issues). Never fully developed his offensive game like he should have, especially his shooting from the outside or from the free-throw line. | |
| Long Range Potential: | Bruising, talented defense-first center (when healthy). |
