Scouting report

A forward with great size and athleticism, he’s a very quick and vertical player who can cover either forward spot on the floor. A fantastic scorer attacking the rim, with good ball-handling and the ability to make vertical plays. He has great ability to cut hard to the basket. He’s also a fantastic rebounder both on defense and on offense. He takes advantage of his size on the perimeter and has great shooting potential. He plays with great activity on the floor and ability to move the ball. He’s also an exceptional defender who can defend multiple positions, switch screens and use his athleticism and length to force turnovers and contest shots.
