Scouting Report
Energetic and explosive on the defensive end, thanks to elite length for his size and good quickness and leaping ability. Works hard on 'D,' and excels both in man-to-man and help situations. Has a few solid go-to moves in the post and is a strong lane-filler on the break. Limited offensively; has little shooting range outside the low post and is mediocre on free throws. Also not much of a passer. Plays like a power forward but has the height and bulk of a small forward. Must show he can stay durable against bigger, stronger pro opponents.
Long Range Potential: Energy defensive depth forward.
