A big-bodied power forward who plays with tenacity and an edge. Relentless on the forecheck and is able to bully his way to the net with his size and speed. Has a good stick around the net and has an accurate rocket of a shot. Thinks the game well and is able to frustrate opposing players while playing physically. All-in-all, an impact player who uses his size and skill to his advantage. Gaining consistency will be integral to his future success. (Curtis Joe, EP 2014)
