6-8 – Power Forward – Louisville
An active and powerful player who brings hustle and great intensity.
Pros
Makes his presence known with physical play and great hustle. Is strong, powerful and deceptively quick.
Has excellent hops and attacks the rim with a lot of force. Has a nose for the ball and does all the dirty work well.
A solid rebounder and very good defender who has a little bit of Ben Wallace in his game but with better scoring ability.
Runs the court well and usually beats his man down the floor. Plays with passion and is a flat out winner.
Cons
A tweener who doesn’t have the size you look for in an NBA PF.
Is not a good free throw shooter and has a lot of work to do on his mid range game.
Projection: late first to early second round pick in the 2015 NBA Draft
