STRENGTHS_WEAKNESSES

// OFFENSIVE_EVALUATION

Strong in the paint, especially on the offensive glass. Does not give up until nothing can be done. Occasionally hits a three when given enough space. Free throws are inconsistent along with midrange, but scores big.

// DEFENSIVE_EVALUATION

Nothing gets by him. Easily gets multi-block games no matter the opponent. Able to switch his man easily thanks to the Pitino system. Foul prone at times, especially when careless. Undersized for todays game, but he makes all his positive assets count.

// PROJECTION

Has an all star ceiling in the right situation, give him the right tools and system and he will flourish. Hard worker and will give his all to the team he is on. However, if his size does not translate well he will likely fall to a rotation piece. He is likely to be in the league no matter what, but it is a matter of how much his mentality and positives can over power the size in the NBA.
