Scouting Report
A tenacious rebounder, an excellent shot-blocker, and a high-percentage offensive fnisher. He's a bruising low-post presence who also brings great energy, effort, toughness, and skill. He can be a constant concern for opponents in the paint because of his mix of grit, high motor, and length. Also a solid passer and shooter. Overall efficiency is an issue for him: his intensity and ultra-physical style sometimes leads to foul trouble, and he can be a more productive ball-handler and scorer. He has the skills to play with a bit more finesse when situations call for it.
Long Range Potential: Athletic, high-motor center or power forward with star tools.
