The swingman can play multiple positions on the perimeter. He’s got very good size and is a strong athlete. He finishes with both hands at the rim. Taron is at his best in the paint as a slasher. If he misses a layup, he has a quick second leap to tip in points. I like Essex’s upside as a defender. He rebounds well and holds switchability.
