Scouting Report
Assets
An elite low-post scorer, rebounder, and defender. Never stops working on or off the hardwood. Brings a nice mix of power, skill, intensity, and leadership to the court every game.
Flaws
Has become injury-prone later in his career. While his huge wingspan makes up for it, he's a little undersized for an NBA post player.
Career potential
Star power forward when healthy.
