Not the flashiest to do it, but a steady operator out of the pivot, "Double A" enters TMBSL as the 2x Big-8 Player of the Year, leading the Sooners in scoring, rebounding, blocked shots, and FG%. Despite those stats, scouts see his future primarily as a change-of-pace scorer in the paint. He is creative inside and has the capacity to put up big individual scoring numbers. He's shorter and not a great leaper, so rebounding will be much more difficult in the pros than it was in Norman. He's a very solid free throw shooter, so he's not afraid of going to the line as many young bigs are. Defensively he's just a bit light in the seat to really compete in the post, but his shot blocking skills should be at least average for a big man. The biggest issue he has coming out of college will persist in the pros... he just tries to do too much with the ball and the end result is often a fast-break in the other direction after he's lost control. Growth in that facet could really boost him to being a reliable starter instead of a rotation piece. He's young, though, so scouts are excited to see if there is still development time for him.
