Scouting Report
The undrafted forward gives it everything he has on every shift, and is the kind of player coaches can trust to be in the right place at the right time. His offensive skills are good enough that he can play up in the lineup (at lower levels). His smarts and determination more than compensate for his lack of size, and he has a history of working his way up from being a bit player into handling increased responsibilities.
Long Range Potential: Versatile depth forward.
