Prolific as a rebounder and shot-blocker, and unmatched in how high above the rim he plays on a regular basis. A rare athlete and an explosive leaper for a true 7-footer, which--when combined with his his great wingspan--helps him dominate opponents. Hard to stop on alley-oops and put-backs. A hard worker in the paint with a high motor. Still needs a lot of work on his fundamental ball skills, especially his free-throw shooting and passing. Doesn't have much of a perimeter game at all. Sometimes gets into foul trouble too easily, and occasionally lets his intensity boil over into mistakes.

Long Range Potential: Dominant, high-flying star defensive center.
