Scouting Report
A great scorer and rebounder at La Salle University in Philadelphia, he averaged in his senior year (20.8 PPG) the most points in a season at the school since Rasual Butler (2001-02). A true small forward, he can score from the field and is also a polished free-throw shooter. Has enough athleticism to rebound the ball regularly and also owns a high basketball IQ. In order to maximize his playing time in the NBA, he needs to add more bulk to play the four position. Is probably not quick enough to defend against smaller, quicker guards at the highest level.
Long Range Potential: Solid small forward with some upside.
