TOP DOG
NBA ROLE: TWO-WAY PIVOT
Jarrett Allen: a skilled, 6’11 big w/ great size & an uncanny wingspan; 'that's a man's jam!' – Allen's an excellent lob threat* w/ a massive dunk zone, hammers home anything he can corral; Watch DOG – goes after EVERY shot on the interior: not afraid to challenge dunks (on the unfavorable end of posters), always makes his presence known as a rim protector; much improved offensive game: an excellent lob threat, Allen tends to roam around the baseline and basket (frequently converts put backs & easy chances); nice short hook game, can knock down shots from around 15 feet, further diversifying attack (from the post & perimeter) will keep defenders guessing; solid passer outta the high & low blocks; active on the glass, consistently pulls down 10+ boards; excellent defensive duo w/ Evan Mobley - pair of them owns interior zones, making it difficult to generate easy looks; Allen re-upped long-term, slots in as Cleveland's premiere pivot
