Scouting Report

Assets
  • Very coordinated and athletic, he has excellent mobility for a big-man. Takes good angles boxing out and fights hard on the block. Owns an array of short-range moves and a nice mid-range jumper. A positive, example-first leader.
Flaws
  • Health issues (especially to his knees) have robbed a lot of his once-trademark explosive leaping ability. He's mostly a non-factor as a passer. Free-throw shooting has never been a strength.
Career Potential
  • Above-average post player.
