Scouting Report
A tough, elite man-to-man defender. A true ball-hawk who piles up steals, and will also block some shots. Plays much bigger than his size, and is an intense and explosive athlete. Can score capably in a variety of ways, but especially excels driving to the hoop and drawing fouls. His offense (while solid) generally isn't at the same level as his 'D.' Foul-prone at times. He's erratic from both 3-point land and from the charity stripe. Somewhat injury-prone too. Early in his career maturity was questionable (due to both on-court and off-court incidents).
Long Range Potential: Elite defender on the wing and solid veteran scorer.
