Scouting Report
He brings a strong frame with an excellent wingspan to the wing positions, and uses those qualities to defend well. He also hits regularly from the 3-point arc, and plays with good intensity and a bit of an edge. Shows team-first instincts, battling for rebounds and looking for his teammates with the extra pass. Fills the lane well too. He isn't quite a take-charge type of scorer who will regularly create his own shot, and while he's a willing passer he's not a creative distributor type. He does most things well but doesn't really stand out in any.
Long Range Potential: Long, strong '3-and-D' rotational wing player.
