Scouting Report
Agile, instinctive, and impressive as a scorer. Has the height and length of a power forward with the overall skills of a shooting guard. Despite a major lack of bulk, he does a great job using his body to protect the ball and set up defenders for one-on-one moves. Hits the three consistently. A very mobile, active help defender too. Very, very thin-framed, and while athletic and agile he's not all that explosive. May not be able to add much muscle mass without losing some mobility. May have a tough time rebounding and stopping pro big men one-on-one unless he adds a lot of strength. Must pass a bit more and be better on free throws.
Long Range Potential: Tall, talented, athletic scoring combo forward with star potential.
