Scouting Report
Boasts the amazing wingspan, reach, and mobility all NBA teams covet in a post player. Uses his great length and quickness to protect the rim impressively as both a shot blocker and rebounder. Has developed a solid array of short-range offensive moves, including a jump-hook. An explosive dunker. Foul-prone, and still developing his efficiency and focus. Inconsistent and still a bit raw overall. Not much of an outside shooter, despite good athleticism. Not a good ball-handler / passer. A bit undersized for a center and not all that skilled at power forward.
Long Range Potential: Athletic, super-long low-post player with some upside.
