Scouting Report

Assets
  • A legitimate 7-footer with the agility and feet of a forward, he can both run the floor and post up. Uses his excellent wingspan and quickness to dominate as a rebounder. Has good hands for alley-oops.
Flaws
  • Despite his length and athleticism he doesn't dominate consistently. His motor is a little streaky, especially on offense. Not the shot-blocker he could be and his skinny frame makes him injury prone.
Career Potential
  • Starting center.
