Scouting Report

Assets
  • Has the imposing size and physical toughness to play an intimidating role for his team. Can drop the gloves and also play a little defense if needed.
Flaws
  • Cannot be counted upon to log big minutes, mainly because of a lack of mobility and overall talent. Doesn't scare anyone in the offensive zone.
Career Potential
  • Part-time enforcer.
