Scouting Report

Assets
  • A polished two-way performer, he also displays some offensive acumen. Can play either center or wing and has tremendous determination.
Flaws
  • Could stand to play a more physically imposing game but he doesn't use his 6-2 frame with consistency. Is also an erratic point-producer.
Career Potential
  • All-around forward.
