Scouting Report
Possessed a massive frame, long arms, and good feet. Could dominate opponents in spurts. An active rebounder and shot-blocker who was also a solid low-post scorer when the opportunity arose. Knew his strengths. Seemed to turn his A-game on and off. Free-throws and passing were sore points (although he didn't commit a lot of turnovers). Like many centers, he didn't have much of a jumper and didn't look for his own shot very often.
Long Range Potential: Streaky but solid starting center.
