A classic modern 'stretch four' NBA teams covet: brings the height, length, reach, and strength to be an excellent rebounder, yet is also skilled enough to regularly hit his jumpers. Smart and active around the basket, snatching boards and keying the break with outlets. Blocks his share of shots. Has a good handle and a smooth jump shot. While agile and athletic, he's not explosive and doesn't bring a lot of bounce. Regularly needs to lean on his hoops IQ and savvy, and can have defensive trouble one-on-one against bigger, faster players. Although a good outside shooter, he's not yet reliable from 3-point land. |
