Scouting Report
One of the most complete players on the planet, in part thanks to rare physical gifts: has a truly amazing wingspan for his height, massive hands, and explosive athleticism. Exceptional moving laterally, making him a dominant defender and an underrated scorer. Has become a top-tier all-round shooter too. He's injury-prone, and most seasons he misses numerous games because of it. Can be more of a rebounder, and while an excellent scorer he's not yet quite a take-charge offensive playmaker who will consistently create his own shot or regularly set up his teammates.
Long Range Potential: Superstar two-way small forward (when healthy).
