Plays much bigger then his actual size. Outstanding rebounder for his size. Seems to find the ball and goes and gets it. Low strong center of gravity when handling the ball. Displayed nice passes in the half court as well as full court look ahead to lead to baskets. Hit deep threes with a hand in his face. Goes to the rim strong but also had a nice pull up in transition.

This lefty has a good frame. Can get to the rim. Works hard on the boards and can finish around the rim. Exceptional in transition goes strong to the hole.
