Position: PF | From: Villanova | Class/YOB: Senior |
Height: 6’8 | Weight: 255 | Wingspan: 7’0 |
Strengths:
- Competitive defender with good length and energy on the ball. Projects as a guy who can switch across multiple positions
- Capable of stretching the floor as a shooter. Elevates well on threes and slips screens to find space behind the arc
- Team player with a high-IQ. Spent time at Villanova making the most of various roles, which bodes well in a league where he will be a rotation piece
- Tough, physical rebounder. Not the tallest forward, but he sticks his nose in to come up with them
Weaknesses:
- Doesn’t have a very high ceiling. He is a solid player but doesn’t have a lot of high-level skills
- Never became a big threat winning one-on-one battles as a ball-handler. Has the ability to push in transition but often struggles to catch on the perimeter and go get a bucket on a defender
- Outside shot was inconsistent in this past season as he was tasked with putting up more threes than normal. However, I don’t imagine him ever having to force up shots on an NBA team
