Scouting Report

Assets
  • A hard-working and smart player, he uses good angles to make efficient power moves in the post. He is an excellent rebounder, hits his free throws, and takes high-percentage looks from the field. Also versatile, he can play power forward or center. Hustles.
Flaws
  • A lack of elite measurables means he has to work for everything he gets in the post. A lack of explosiveness sees him struggle at times as a man-on-man defender. He's also not much of a passer and has been injury-prone at times in his career.
Career Potential
  • Starting power forward, spot-starter at center.
