Scouting Report
Has the athleticism and length NBA teams covet in a forward. Brings the mobility to fill the lane and will explode over the defense for dunks and put-backs. Has good defensive chops thanks to his good quickness, reach and intensity level. Is able to play anywhere from power forward to shooting guard but plays like a power forward, despite his swingman size. Is still developing his skill set and is not much of a ball handler, passer or shooter (from beyond the arc or at the free-throw line). Is prone to both fouls and turnovers. Needs to add significant muscle mass.
Long Range Potential: Super-athletic, versatile depth forward.
