Scouting Report

Assets
  • A talented pure scorer with a nose for the basket, he has a nice first step and good leaping ability to get to the rim in a hurry. Loves to drive the lane and draw fouls, and is a very good finisher. Also flashes a solid outside jumper and good rebounding effort.
Flaws
  • While solid on defense he could bring more in that area. While a good outside shooter his 3-point range needs work. Not a big passer, and could stand to put on a little bulk for all those drives to the bucket.
Career Potential
  • Star forward.
