Scouting Report
A near-7-footer with guard skills and mobility. Possesses impressive raw talent. Can ball-handle and shoot and is very fast for his size. An excellent leaper who can fill the lane and post people up. Has the upside to play several positions very well in the NBA. Lacks consistency and strength, and too often doesn't play up to his talent level or his size. Not yet the rebounder or shot-blocker could be. Needs more muscle and must prove he can develop a more steady overall approach to his development.
Long Range Potential: Streaky swingman with star-level length and athleticism.
