• Scores well from mid range and in the lane, using floaters and pull-up jumpers
• A creative finisher who can put it in with either hand
• Has a solid frame which will be able to add strength
• A committed defender who can get under the opponents skin and impact the game on the defensive end
• Doesn’t project as an elite athlete by NBA standards
