He still passes up post-up opportunities, even when he has a mismatch. He's still clueless on what to do on drives lasting more than one dribble. A 3 point shooting 7 footer with his minutes and agility should be averaging 20 ppg easily.
Offensively he is a system player.. and has much room for improvement.. In the post is still mechanical and needs to develop a spin move because he is always going to shoot over the defender, and is becoming quite easy to read.. SAme to take position.. he needs to become more secure, and hard, to avoid steals.. I think eventually he will get there.. also off the dribble, becoming able to create off the script..
Defensively he just needs to be concentrated all the time.. When he is, he is very good man on man defender, and improved help defender..HE needs keep working.. but he quite good for a 24 years old big man without good natural instincts
