He has a center's game and speed in a power forward's body.
I can’t see how this can be more wrong. He is not an elite interior defender. Or perimeter for that matter. He plays low to the ground. He does not play with his back to the basket. He is not a dominant rebounder. In short, he does nothing a true center does.
I wish him the best, but will be surprised if he finds much success in the league unless he develops his inside or outside game to a level not demonstrated at LSU. He has certainly had brief flashes, but has not consistently displayed next level ability.

You're right and I really phrased my wording poorly. I really meant that he is slow and doesn't jump like a center but isn't 7 foot. IMO he just doesn't have the type of athleticism and explosion to play PF in the NBA. If he was 7 foot he could be a fantastic center.
