Scouting Report

Assets
  • Athletic and fluid, he has nice footwork and good quickness for an NBA center. A skilled short-range scorer and a pretty good passer out of the post. Flashes moments of explosiveness.
Flaws
  • Focus and consistency have been major problems throughout his career. Shows more finesse than power in the paint, not dominating play as a rebounder or shot-blocker (in part because of small hands). Injury-prone.
Career Potential
  • Reserve center / spot-starter.
