Scouting Report
What stands out about him is his ability to shoot the basketball for such a big guy (6'11", 227 pounds). He also displays a very heady game and can score a lot of different ways. While athletic, he does not have ideal length so he may be limited to the four position at the highest level (although he may be quick and smart enough to defend against smaller forward as well). Can rebound the basketball too but needs to improve his overall defensive game in order to maximize output in the NBA.
Long Range Potential: Talented, "stretch-four" power forward with good upside.
