Scouting Report
The Illinois native was a standout in his two seasons at DePaul University (prior to that, he played at Lewis University for two years from 2014-16) and finished his senior season averaging 20 points per game. At 6'6", he has good height for a wingman. Can shoot the three-pointer and is a solid scoring option, overall. Is not an elite athlete at the highest level, so he needs to continue to work on moving his feet and his defensive positioning.
Long Range Potential: Solid wing player with some upside.
