Scouting Report
A rare athlete for a center: he runs the floor and jumps like a small forward, yet has a wingspan over 7-foot-4. He's a superb shot-blocker with great defensive upside, and he brings uncommon agility and quickness for his size. His hands and shooting stroke are very solid for a big man, as well. He's raw overall, and maturity is a question mark after he left college following a suspension. He needs to add significant muscle mass to his thin frame to deal with NBA-level physicality in the paint, and he must keep honing his overall ball skills.
Long Range Potential: Super-athletic, super-mobile, raw center prospect.
