OFF72DEF74

Elite rim protector & scorer

A long, springy young wing whose calling card is rim protection from the forward spot — 1.1 blocks a game and a 90th-percentile shot-blocker on the perimeter. He chipped in 14.6 points and shot a promising 41% from three on real volume. The handle and playmaking are still raw, but the two-way athletic upside is real and he hits free agency with momentum.
