. Made several plays off offensive rebounds where off his vertical he dunked it back home. Motor is getting better on the defensive end. Big time rebounder that showed he’s capable of ripping off the defensive glass and pushing in transition. Offensively he’s an inside-out big that is relentless in getting downhill. Strong finisher that absorbs contact well and gets to the free throw line where he converts at a solid clip. Has shown range out to the three-point line, and knocked down a couple in the games I saw, but did a good job of not settling.

The 6’6” Heritage Hills/ Indiana Elite Team Indiana Forward continues to improve every time I see him. The mobile inside-out forward has expanded his game on both ends of the floor. Capable three-point shooter off the catch while showing his ability to drive closeouts with improved athleticism finishing above the rim. Versatile defender that rebounds at a high level while being a legit rim running big man. He continues to be one of the premier players in the 2027 Class in Southwest Indiana that continues to evolve his skill set.
