Mobile and instinctive for a big man. Nimble and sneaky-athletic, with excellent ability at his size to run the floor. A good scorer with nice hands and a solid mid-range shooting stroke. Hustles on both offense and defense, will poach steals, and does a great job getting high-percentage looks. Does the little things to succeed as a pro. Foul-prone, partly because he lacks great length for a big man and isn't particularly powerful in the post. While a good hustler he's not a dominant rebounder. Somewhat undersized for a center, and isn't all that explosive for a power forward. Needs to develop more of an outside shot. | |
Long Range Potential: | Skilled, energetic big man with starter talent. |
