Scouting Report
Mobile and coordinated for a 7-footer. Boasts a quick first step and an array of offensive moves, including a solid mid-range jumper. Has shown the ability to block shots effectively. Feisty, and an on-court leader who does the dirty work to help his team succeed. Sometimes plays more a finesse game than a power game in the post. Needs to add bulk, especially for durability. Must continue rounding out his game to provide more consistency on the offensive end.
Long Range Potential: Gritty rotational vet big man.
