Strengths: A very polished 7 foot center...Has an assortment of nimble post moves; the up-and-under,
drop step, etc....Leaves the opposing big out of position very often...Has a fadeaway jumpshot and a turnaround as well....Strong
rebounder especially on the offensive end...Very athletic. Dunks and posturizes many big men very often...Alters, although
doesn't block too many shots on the defensive end...Has the rare combination of All-star caliber gifts and killer instinct,
and should really improve...Very tough and willing to learn.
Weaknesses: Experience. Was thrown into the fire and responded really well...Free throw shooting
and mid-range J can stand to improve...Speed and perimeter defense needs a lot of improvement...Can get too block-happy and
pick up fouls...may need to reign that fire a bit...not a great shotblocker, but maybe that will come in time...
