Position: C | From: UCLA | Class/YOB: Freshman |
Height: 7’1 | Weight: 241 | Wingspan: 7’4 |
Strengths:
- Terrific size and length. Was one of the tallest players at the combine
- Protects the rim well. Has to work on staying vertical, but he regularly contests shots in his area. Averaged 3.3 blocks per 40 minutes
- Has the ability to outrun opposing bigs. Very agile for a 7-footer
- Has soft hands and the ability to easily finish above the rim. Was one of the top offensive rebounders in the country as a freshman. Crashes with a purpose
- A projectable body that should be able to put on some weight
Weaknesses:
- Struggles with physicality at times. Can lose out on rebounds or be buried in the post due to a lack of strength
- Atrocious foul shooter
- Not going to be guarded anywhere outside of 12-feet at this point
- Has to work on his footwork on rolls and in the post. You can tell he is still inexperienced by the way he rushes when he gets the ball
