Draft Notes

Has a soft touch around the basket and he does a good job of getting into post position. Can score with either hand and projects as an offensive force, as he continues to develop.

Has a good understanding of the game for a young center. Passes the ball well and has a good feel for the flow of the offense.

Has the size and strength to hold his own at the highest levels of competition. Does a nice job of defending in the paint and using his length (nearly 7-4 wingspan) to alter shots and protect the rim.

Is not a run-jump athlete and doesn’t have great speed. Needs to get/stay in top shape to reach his potential.

Doesn’t play with enough aggression and tenacity. Needs to develop a mean streak.
