Watching the highlights back again things that jump out that would be useful to use that we lack...

-Looks like he has really good basketball IQ on both ends of the court.  Knows when to cut on offense.  He attacks offensive glass at the right times not every time.  Sets good screens.

-On defense he seems to know when and how to rotate seems to get mad on the court when other players miss rotation which is needed on our team Someone who is a leader on that side and will hold others accountable

-Looks very team-first guy.  Teammates fall first to pick up etc.

-Passion he seems to be someone that is very passionate about playing the game and shows it on the court I think that is good and we need more of that.

Things I will have to dig to see more of...

Can he guard a wing player in space?  That will be a determining factor if he fits in our starting lineup at the forward opposite of Donnie.  Donnie I don't think he will have the foot speed to stay in front of quicker small forward-type players.  Will he?

Shooting from distance?  Can he improve enough to keep defenses honest at the P4 level.
