Outlook
Sylvester is known for his shot blocking and rebounding taking advantage of his wingspan of 7'5" or 2.26 meters. He had the chance to study Dikembe Mutumbo’s shot-blocking ability and loves to do the same; affect the game with his defense. Sylvester is a left-hander who runs the court well and loves to finish with a dunk on either the break or in the half court. A well-conditioned athlete with endurance and speed, he lettered two years in cross country in high school and led Georgia St’s basketball team with a 5:18 mile run. His long arms have helped his defense and he has developed a “sky hook” a la Kareem Abdul-Jabbar for his offensive game.
