Strengths: The next big prospect out of Germany after Dirk Nowitzki ... Excellent fundamentals ... Very good shooting mechanics ... Has a nice frame, with big, strong shoulders ... Can put on a lot of weight ... Very versatile ... Can play any of the 2-5 positions ... Exceptional at running the floor ... An explosive leaper with quickness and athleticism ... Hits the three consistently when left open ... An athletic shotblocker with good timing ... Finishes well around the basket ... Has a nice repertoire of moves in the paint. Posesses good vision and passing skills.

Weaknesses: Needs to improve on his help defense as he picks up too many senseless fouls when helping out teammates ... Should become more selfish and demand the ball more ... Inexperienced, has not played a high level of competition yet, but has been dominant at the younger levels ... Still very young, but will need to get a lot stronger, so maintaining his agility while adding strength will be important.

Notes: Had the chance to meet his idol Dirk Nowitzki and got a pair of shoes ... Has offers from teams in South Europe ... transfered to Bamberg prior to the 2006/07 season, and will likely play for Bambergs farm team Breitengüßbach.
