A strong rebounder and a tough defender who's explosive and confident in the post. Uses exceptional footwork and quickness to power his way to high-percentage buckets. Mobile for a big man, and a great leaper and finisher (in the post and filling the lane). Also passes exceptionally well for a center and is team-first. Not very long for his height and doesn't have ideal bulk for the center spot. Can get foul-prone, and needs to rein in his game a little bit. Lacks a consistent shooting stroke from the mid-range out, and is a poor free-throw shooter. | |
Long Range Potential: | Smart, athletic, above-average center or power forward. |
