Scouting Report
- Undersized power forward plays a whole lot bigger than he is
-
Well cut but not tall
-
Physical scorer despite lack of size
-
Loves to use quick spin moves and up-and-unders to get inside his man for layups
-
Doesn't always establish the best position in the post, but his lateral speed allows him to shuffle his way to the basket
-
Uses the baseline to get around traffic, opening up uncontested layups by taking advantage of the backboard to cut off his man from his shot
-
Does a lot of spinning and ballfakes to setup his defender in the post
-
Completely mobile on the interior
-
Quicks allow him to find the pocket
-
Closes in on the basket when he is given a gap rather quickly
-
Change of direction speed to cut through oncoming traffic though he doesn't always protect his handle well enough
-
Makes use of the spin dribble frequently
-
Likes to go to the bank shot off drives
-
Can play in the post or facing
-
Vastly improving jumpshot though mostly a spotup shooter from deep
-
Understands the fundamentals of rebounding positioning and how to use his superior quickness to his full advantage
-
A pogoman, lively legs keep him active in traffic
-
Real powerful hands and a true desire to collect every carom that falls in his vicinity
-
Was a high school teammate of Philadelphia 76er Tim Thomas and Virginia point guard Donald Hand
-
NBA scouts are hoping he can make the switch from the power forward spot to small forward in his transition to the pros
-
Has a chance to be a second-round draft pick.
