The Beach Classic Winter Jam is closing up the final look at the standouts. Here’s a look at Part III of the standouts.

He’s a strong bodied-forward at 6-foot-6 that won’t hesitate to defend the post and on the perimeter using his size and quickness. He put up 6.7 ppg off the bench including 11 points against Aim High, showing his touch around the rim and then some.
