Scouting Report

Assets
  • A tough, physical defender. Gets good position, battles hard for rebounds, and gives up nothing on defense. Good on the offensive glass. A hard worker and team-first player.
Flaws
  • Brings very little to the court offensively. Struggles to hit shots from all areas of floor and is a liability at the free-throw line. Can be foul-prone.
Career Potential
  • Defensive and rebounding specialist.
