Scouting Report
Uncommonly long, athletic, and energetic and he uses those tools to excel as a defender. Does well in both zone and man-to-man defensive assignments. Plays bigger than his size and is productive as a rebounder, shot-blocker, and source of steals. Also a good leaper who loves to get in the lane and finish with big dunks. Still very raw offensively: he struggles with his jump-shot and on free throws, and isn't much of a passer at all. His contributions as a point-getter are mostly limited to filling the lane, driving for alley-oops, and opportunistic put-backs.
Long Range Potential: Undersized but athletic, energetic, defense-first wing.
