Career: Pınar Karşıyaka (Turkey Division 1, 1998-2000), Efes Pilsen (Turkey Division 1, 2000-…).
His name means “Boulder” in Turkish and his play lives right up to that name. He is a very powerful and athletic power forward who just rules the boards. Also he is a tireless worker who might very well run for 80 minutes at 110% if given the chance. If he gave up basketball he would make a very good wrestler. A graduate of the Efes Pilsen defensive school he is a demon on help defense. His power lets him guard even centers. But on offense he is rather limited to dunks and put-backs. His midrange jumper is suspect as well as his free throws. He is also a below average passer. |
