Scouting Report

Assets
  • Songalia is a fundamentally sound player with a decent jumper and solid rebounding abilities at both ends of the court.
Flaws
  • Songalia has quick hands but slow feet, which can get him into foul trouble when playing against more athletic or quick forwards.
Career Potential
  • Songalia could end up as a top-level reserve, but would have to really work on his game to become a starter.
