Scout’s Notes:
If you're looking for a big man to build a team around, Jahlil Okafor is the prospect you are looking for. He has mammoth size at 6'10", 270 pounds. However, he is extremely mobile for his size. He utilizes a powerful spin move in the post to maneuver around opponents. He is also a phenomenal rebounder. Outstanding prospect.
