-You always know what you’re getting from Mancho whether the scoring is there on that particular night or not. Mancho gives his team a vocal leader both on the court and from the bench (cannot stress the importance of the latter enough in today’s landscape), plays with energy at both ends of the floor, and has improved his touch from both the free throw line as well as around the basket. His timing in both the setting of the screen and the roll to the rim off of it have improved to cut down on offensive fouls in addition to more space for his guards to operate in the halfcourt. If he can become a more explosive leaper to capitalize on the positioning that he fights for around the rim, he could develop into a devastatingly-effective rebounder and play-finisher around the rim.
