Summary
Raw, high-upside rim protector with elite length and mobility for his size. Extremely lean frame requires significant strength development, but defensive instincts and switchability project to modern NBA center role with proper physical maturation.

- Fluid athlete who runs floor in transition
- Switchable on perimeter, quick lateral movement
- High motor, active hands in passing lanes
Weaknesses
- Severely undersized frame needs 25+ pounds
- Limited offensive repertoire beyond dunks and putbacks
- Gets pushed around by physical post players
