Draft Notes

A burly combo forward who does a little bit of everything on the court. Has a rock solid frame and uses it well to establish position in the paint. Can score with his back to the basket or face up and break his man down off the dribble.

Rebounds at a high level and is a plus defender. Can guard the PF position thanks to his strong frame. Shows good awareness on D and understands proper positioning. Doesn’t have the quickest feet but can hold is own defending in space.

Doesn’t hit the 3 ball at a high clip and will have to add this to his game to excel it at the next level.
