Scouting Report
Already a dominant two-way big man. Uncommonly skilled, coordinated, and instinctive for his size, with great hands. An excellent passer and free throw shooter for his size, with the length and quickness to be an top-tier shot-blocker and rebounder. Smooth and high-upside. Not yet all that physical under the basket, which leads to some inconsistency at both ends of the floor. Appears to coast at times and will get foul-prone on the defensive end. Must keep adding muscle mass to reach his excellent all-round potential.
Long Range Potential: All-Star-level two-way center / power forward.
