Strengths: A multidimensional bigman with a great combination of size and skills ... He has a huge frame already (just a sophomore in high school) plus excellent agility ... Has great versatility with the ability to play inside, grabbing rebounds and patrolling the paint, as well as facing the basket and using the bounce to create shots for himself and others ... Extremely skilled with the ball, can even isolate and take smaller players off the dribble from the perimeter ... Has excellent vision and passing ability for a big man ... Very strong body, and thick, can easily end up carrying 270 280 pounds or more, depending how tall he ends up, and maintain his excellent mobility ... Has a feathery stroke out to college three point ... Better conditioning and strength as his body matures will no doubt result in more agility and explosiveness ... His post skills are developing well, with tremendous hands and feet ... The sky's the limit for him, but it all depends how bad he wants it, and what type of work ethic and drive he develops ...

Weaknesses: Still has a long ways to go to reach his potential ... Right now he's very good, and can become great if he adds some key elements to his game ... He can do it all, but his consistency suffers at times ... Needs to gain better focus on both ends of the floor, when he becomes tired, his game suffers ... Needs to work on his stamina and build some of his body fat into muscle ... Shows good signs of competitiveness and toughness, but must work on developing a killer instinct ... Needs to become more patient with his post moves, incorporate more pump fakes and develop better moves ...

Notes: Moved to California (Artesia high school) after his freshman season. He's considered the top prospect in the Class of 2009.
