Scouting Report

Assets
  • An extremely athletic and explosive leaper for a big man. He is an excellent shot-blocker and loves playing above the rim. An energetic team-first guy who provides a spark. Will fill the lane and go for big dunks.
Flaws
  • For such a great athlete he isn't much of a rebounder. His shooting stroke is still somewhat unrefined. Some very serious off-court issues have threatened his career in the past.
Career Potential
  • Energy big-man off the bench.
