Passcat:
Bosman A Short summary/Player description:
Possesses the ability to play inside and outside, with the size of a post player and the ball-handling skills of a small forward … despite his size, likes to run the floor in the transition game. Typical 4/5 after lithuanian bases but he spent last 8 years in USA schools....can grab well inside...play well back and front basket...can score from the middle...hard to pass in defence....working aggresive on full court...nice passer like for bigman...need improve shot blocking.
