One of the most underrated bigs in college basketball. Awesome skillset for a 7 footer that can beat you one on one in the post no problem and awesome at stretching out to knock down a catch and shoot 3. Elite footwork. Frank Kaminsky.

Big, long center who can playmake and score in the post. He isn't a great defender for someone of his size and length.
