Scouting Report
A feisty battler, he played even bigger than his actual height and weight and was rarely pushed around in the paint. Loved to set picks and mix it up. Was a committed and aggressive rebounder. Had some solid offensive post moves and was an underrated passer. His aggressive style too often got him into foul trouble, and he occasionally went overboard and got into scuffles. Was not an elite athlete, so defensively he had trouble containing quick big men one on one. Also, he was not much of a shot blocker for a pivot.
Long Range Potential: Gritty, solid role-playing center.
