Scouting Report
A very athletic big-man with a 7-foot-4 wingspan. Shows good defensive instincts. A hard-working rebounder and natural shot-blocker. Has very few offensive moves and a very raw shooting stroke, and isn't much of a passer. Draws fouls too easily, limiting his playing time.
Long Range Potential: Depth shot-blocking specialist at power forward or center.
