Scouting Report from 2003 InfoSport Pro Basketball Combine

Physical & Mental: Long arms. Amazing athlete! Jumps out of the gym. Strong! Mentally, he can play to the crowd a bit too much, but he plays really hard.  Fatigue seemed to never set it all weekend.

 

Ball Skills: Could handle on the wing. Takes it to the basket very well. Also showed good post moves.

 

Offense: Excellent mid range jumper. Showed he does have three-point range. What sets him apart is his athletic ability. He finished most drives with thunderous dunks in traffic. Didn't see much weakness in his offensive game. A consistent scorer.

 

Rebounding: Strong, blocks out well. Good rebounder. Very  good offensive rebounder.

 

Defense: Good on-the-ball defender. Had tendency to lose man trying to go for steals, but we liked his aggressiveness.


Game Knowledge: Needs to learn better team defense. Overall game knowledge is good.

 

Strengths: Excellent offensive skills. Extremely athletic. Really attacks the basket. Very explosive player when going to the rim. Good post moves and nice mid-range game.

 

Opportunities for Improvement: Team defense - lost his man sometimes, which hurt the team.  

 

Overall Comments: He is a SERIOUS PRO PROSPECT! Plays really hard and wants to win.
