Scouting Report

Assets
  • Lethal scorer from the slot area. Loves to instigate trouble for the opposition. Plays a sound two-way game and is very durable.
Flaws
  • Is not as intimidating as he was in the early 90's, at least in terms of his physical presence. Has become a streaky scorer over time.
Career Potential
  • All-time great power forward.
