  May very well be the best athlete in the league... Outstanding leaping skills... Jumps high and many times in a short period of time... That's a good thing if you want to grab a rebound... At 6-7, he grabs almost 10 per night... Ugly shooting mechanic... His accuracy is good... Drives to the basket without fear... Runs the floor with the best of them... Great defender... Guards multiple positions... Never gets tired... Quite an underrated player.
