Scouting Report
He brings a rare combination of vision, instincts, skill, and length. His wingspan and reach are long enough to play small-ball center, and he has the ball-handling and anticipation to play some point guard. He's an excellent rebounder and defender, and has rare potential versatility. Also a lefty shooter. His outside shot and free throw shooting are works in progress. Injuries have slowed his development, and he needs to add significant muscle mass to deal with NBA physicality and help with durability. He's additionally foul-prone.
Long Range Potential: Uniquely versatile, skilled big man with some point-forward starter potential.
