Highly underrated, well-rounded, and versatile at power forward. He is an explosive leaper who also plays with excellent speed, and he takes smart shots and hits his free throws. He can defend several positions well on defense, and offensively he keeps teams honest with a jumper out to 3-point range. Efficent and super-solid. Undersized for a pro big man and sometimes gets over-physical to compensate (leading to bouts with foul trouble). Needs to rein his defensive game. Consistency is key: at times he looks like a star and at others he looks like a role player. Maturity was an issue in college. | |
Long Range Potential: | Explosive, streaky power forward with starter talent. |
