Scouting Report
A smart and driven post player who was comfortable in the low post. Excelled at angling for position in both scoring and rebounding situations: could box out and get the step on his man. Got good mileage from his great size and wingspan, and had solid fundamentals, quickness, and heart. Also brought a lot of international experience. Wasn't much of a perimeter player at all, and was a shaky shooter from outside the low paint. Also foul-prone, and could have been much more of a shot-blocker considering his size and reach. Also wasn't much of a passer for a player with his skills and experience.
Long Range Potential: Bruising low-post depth center.
