His mechanics are solid and has good form and knows when to pull up... Arguably the best dunker in the league... Positions himself well for rebounds and excels on the offensive glass... Opponents can�t get in front of him... Solid defensively as a shot blocker, with good timing and possesses good lateral quickness... An absolutely jaw dropping physical specimen with his combination of size, length, strength, athleticism and mobility
Lacks the ability to improvise much in the open floor: catching and dribbling/passing before a shot, he's a lot more comfortable with set plays or crashing the glass... Not a great ball handler.... Decision making must improve
