He was a leader on both ends of the floor while racking up 20 points, 11 rebounds and four blocks en route to earning the MVP award in their matchup against the Vikings. He continues to show his development as a versatile forward that can make plays off the bounce and knock down shots on the perimeter.

He showed he could be a pest defensively and make things happen on the perimeter with four made 3-pointers and 24 points to lead the offensive charge for the Monarchs.
