Scouting Report
Tough, intense, and a clutch performer. A hard worker on the court who is constantly making gritty plays. Tall and athletic, and a lefty with a well-rounded game. Flashes 3-point range to complement his physical, hard-driving style. Not particularly fleet of foot and is a bit of a 'tweener' (he plays like a power forward but has the size of a swingman). Still inconsistent as a shooter, especially from the arc. Not the rebounder his style would suggest.
Long Range Potential: Energy forward with intriguing tools.
