Summary
Raw seven-footer from Croatian system with intriguing floor-spacing potential but severely underdeveloped frame and strength. Projects as draft-and-stash who needs 2-3 years overseas to add functional weight and refine post fundamentals before NBA consideration.
Strengths
- Legitimate 7-0 height with fluid shooting mechanics
- Flashes face-up shooting range to three-point line
- Good hands and touch around basket
- Decent mobility for size in open floor
Weaknesses
- Alarmingly thin 221-pound frame lacks NBA strength
- Gets overwhelmed physically by contact and posting
- Limited defensive anchor potential currently
