NBA DRAFT SCOUTING REPORT
POSITION: C | FROM: Duke | HT: 7-0 | WT: 220 |
BORN: 12/16/01 | YEAR: Fr. | WING: 7-4 | REACH: NA |
Draft Notes
Has plenty of size, a legit 7-footer and decent mobility. Rebounds on the ball well and knows his role, as a rebounder and defender.
Does a lot of his scoring on put-backs and dump offs around the rim.
Can be a bit heavy-footed and doesn’t change directions particularly well, which could lead to trouble defending against NBA speed and in pick and roll situations.
Could be a one and done but might take a few years in college to develop.
