Very good rebounder even though he's not that athletic.
Great ball handling skills for someone 6' 9".
Improved jump shot.
Good footwork.
Improved a lot from freshman to sophomore year.
When playing point guard, he has the ability to see over the smaller defenders to make a pass or take them to the block and score on a post up.
Does most of his scoring from the elbows and close in the paint.
Weaknesses:
Can he play point guard at the next level?
Plays the game at a slow pace, which may not be effective in the NBA.
Has trouble guarding quick wing players.
Even though he's an improved jump shooter, his shot still needs some work.
