Outlook:
An extremely athletic forward with a solid mid-range jump shot and excellent awareness around the basket. He is a multi-dimensional player that contributes to a team both offensively and defensively. Kenyatta possesses unique skills in that he can play both facing the basket and with his back to the basket in the post.
The Warrior! Kenyatta is known for cleaning the glass (rebounding) constantly and for cleaning opponents shots out of the paint. During his senior campaign at Southern Utah he led the league in scoring, rebounding, and shot blocking! He continued his specialties professionally in the USBL and the IBA. The great thing about Kenyatta is that his defensive skills and fierce rebounding ability does not take away from his offensive game. He is also a natural scorer and is a good shooter out to 18 ft. He has a true knack for being around the basketball and getting his hands on a lot of offensive put backs and loose balls. Kenyatta's strength and tenacity inside does not hinder his mobility. He an exceptional athlete and runs the floor like a wing player. His conditioning is superior to other power forwards his size. Perhaps his most valuable asset is his work ethic. Kenyatta is the type of player who's always the first in the gym and the last to leave. He is an extremely likable guy and a true team player. He has been a decorated player ever since high school, where he was named State Player of the Year in the USA Today, and top ten USA! He has won numerous honors in college including being selected to the All-Tournament Team at the prestigious Great Alaskan Shootout. Kenyatta is a relentless warrior on both ends of the floor and one of hardest working players you'll meet!
