Scouting Report
Dominant defensively, he controlled games as a rebounder and shot blocker with his hard work, mobility and feisty focus. a team-first player, he was one of the game's best passing big men. Was very long, athletic and energetic. A competitor, he brought excellent intensity and leadership ability to the court. Was somewhat limited as a scorer (especially as a shooter, due to an awkward shooting form). Struggled with free throws. His slim frame took a lot of punishment in the NBA post, so he was rather injury-prone.
Long Range Potential: Elite defensive center (when healthy).
