Outlook

Marcus plays the 4 and 5 positions, but he can step put and shoot the 15 footer. He is long, lanky and athletic. Marcus is a very active player who is an excellent defender and shot blocker. He is an athletic post player who will bang under the basket: physical and very fast, he runs the floor well. He can score with either hand around the basket and will finish strongly dunking on and over the opposition.

Eurobasket Summer League director: "Marcus had a quality Eurobasket Summer League (earning All-League recognition) in Salt Lake City and was very athletic and had a lot of nice dunks and rebounds. He also displayed a nice shooting touch and showed why he played professionally in Spain"
