-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Outlook:
A real big and wide body whose the speciality is to blockshot ; he can really defend the basket; very dissuasive and change the shots coming around him. Not a scorer and his offense is limited to a short hook shot and to offensive rebounds that he can convert. Much praised for his enthusiasm, work ethic and excellent character, Jimmy has been an asset to every team for which he has suited up. Has incredibly long arms and a tremendous 90-inch wingspan
