Scouting Report
A high-potential shot-blocker. Explosive as a leaper, with a huge wingspan. Uncommonly mobile for a big man, and able to run the floor like a small forward. Has developed a solid outside shooting stroke. Significantly needs to add bulk to put up with the physical play in the NBA post. Needs to round out his offensive approach and develop more kick-out passing skills. Still a bit raw on free throws.
Long Range Potential: Athletic shot-blocking depth big man.
