A very strong and athletic big man who is a force inside the paint and plays with incredible intensity. Never backs down from fighting under the basket and is a great rebounder. He has very strong hands to catch the ball and is an easy option inside when cutting and rolling to the rim. He’s a fantastic finisher who scores through contact and has great touch. He can hit the mid-range jumper and has good passing skills too. He’s also a fantastic defender who protects the rim and has quick feet on the pick-and-roll.
