Scouting Report
Made NBA history by becoming the highest drafted Israeli player ever. Spent two plus years toiling for Maccabi FOX Tel Aviv prior to arriving in North America. At 6'9", 210 pounds, he has the size to play as a "stretch four" at the highest level, but also possesses the quickness and overall basketball IQ to play on the wing. Is a raw talent who needs to make the necessary adjustments in order to blossom in the NBA, but he can do it all on the basketball court.
Long Range Potential: Talented, multi-dimensional forward with upside.
