Summary
Traditional big with college-developed strength and positional size. Protects the rim and finishes around the basket but lacks modern mobility and perimeter skill. Limited upside as a backup center in specific schemes.

- Solid defensive rebounder who boxes out consistently
- Rim protection instincts with decent vertical contest timing
- Physical screener who creates space for guards
Weaknesses
- Below-average lateral mobility limits pick-and-roll defensive coverage
- No perimeter shooting range or face-up game
- Struggles defending in space against stretch bigs
