He can shoot as well as Morrison, is as big and faster than LaMarcus, has a 1st step that can only be compared to Dirk and can block shots on top of all that. His combo of shooting, size, speed and athlecism is a very, very rare thing. His rebound numbers are very low in Euroleague, but in Italian League he got about 5 boards in 19 minutes of action. Not great, but certainly not terrible.
Yeah, the rebounding seems to be his only drawback. But if we still have Przybilla and Zach, he can play the SF and he rebounding becomes less of a factor.

I just looked at his age...he's actually younger than Telfair or Ha. That's amazing.
