attack
1. Excellent footwork, soft touch when finishing close to the basket, and can get 1.26 points for each shot at the basket;
2. There is still a lot of room for improvement in long-range shooting ability, and only 0.79 points can be scored for each catch and jump shot. Made some 3-point attempts in his sophomore season, didn’t hit much, but showed potential to be a decent big man;
3. Excellent vision on the court, strong passing ability, and can always transfer the ball to the most reasonable position after encountering double-teaming.
defense
1. Has a good defensive instinct, relatively good defensive awareness and judgment, and can often use his excellent physical talent to complete blocks and steals;
2. The ability to continue to invest on the defensive end needs to be improved, sometimes missing defensive rebounds;
3. Possesses the ability to defend in the low position, allowing the opponent to score 0.82 points every time he defends the opponent’s post-up singles; has a certain ability to switch defenses, but there is still room for improvement in moving speed. Overall, he has the potential to be the gate of the team’s interior defense.
