Position: PF | From: Kansas | Class/YOB: Junior |
Height: 6’9 | Weight: 230 | Wingspan: 7’2 |
Strengths:
- Oddly impressive vision for a player of his size. Capable of bringing the ball up, initiating the offense, and finding the open man
- Great length (7-foot-2 wingspan) and energy allow him to be a force on the glass
- With time and space, he can hit mid-range shots and occasional threes. Shot was much improved from the three-point line and the foul stripe
- Bangs on the inside to finish in the paint. Uses length to float shots over taller defenders
Weaknesses:
- Below-average lift around the rim
- Not a reliable NBA-range three shooter by any stretch. Has to prove that he is able to make those consistently
- Lacks foot speed to guard on switches. Will need to guard fours in the NBA, but he will be attacked in pick-and-rolls
- His scoring package as a whole is not very deep. Will get most of his offense from second chances and rim runs. Will need to do a better job of rolling hard to the rim as opposed to rolling soft and expecting passes early
