 Strength
Long, thin Chris Bosh-type. Excellent student who seeks improvement and coaching. We think he can become an impact guy in college. Working on his face up game. Will rebound inside and once he gets stronger the sky is the limit.


Biography:
Scouting Impressive prospect who is rangy, athletic and has inside-outside capablities. Talented rebounder who blocks shots; cut from the Chris Bosh mold. Changes ends swiftly and will finish with dunks. Needs to continue getting stronger.
