Scouting Report
Runs the floor extremely well and can rebound the ball with aplomb. Is very athletic and wiry, so he can play either forward position in the NBA. Could stand to add more bulk and get physically stronger in order to excel at the four position at the highest level. Is extremely unrefined in most areas of the game, from shooting to defending to learning the nuances of the pro game. However, there is plenty of overall projection in his game. Therefore, he must start putting his physical gifts toward becoming a better all-around basketball player to maximize his minutes at the highest level.
Long Range Potential: Raw, talented scoring forward with upside.
