Superb athleticism and already have a mid range jumper, but tends to be lost from time to time on the court, needs to improve in that department.
I don't know why so many of you are so worried about his rebounding. He does a lot of tipping it to other players and we have multiple guards (Harden and Bev) who grab a lot of rebounds. If the Rockets, as a team, get destroyed on the boards and are losing games because of it, then, and only then, will I worry about whether Montrezl is getting more boards.

I'm going to happily eat crow. He's a legit 5 on our squad with Ryno at the 4. I'm not sure if Montrez would be as effective in other systems, but he certainly fits ours. His reach, motor, and ability to get off the floor so quickly is elite. He's not the rebounder Manimal is, but he's on par in all other aspects IMO and we got him on a much better contract obviously. Don't watch many DEN games so not really sure how Manimal's been playing.
He's got touch around the basket, good pair of hands and high energy. However when rockets play small their interior defence weakens significantly.
Cap injury is a blessing in disguise. Young man is showing amazing improvement and confident in such a short period of time.
Gotta admit, Morey found another 2nd round contributor. Yes Harrell's relentless energy took full advantage of Toronto's dead tired legs. But making 90% of your FG's is hard to do even in a no-defense All-Star game, and he did it in a competitive game with his team still down by double digits. He's showing that he's for real. In a forgotten move, ridding of Michael Beasley even opened up more advancement for Harrell. Then no D-Mo. Nice that he's taking full advantage
Odd to me that Jonas only gets 12 ppg. I don't watch Raptors games so not gonna act like I know a lot about him, but he seems like he could score more. Because if he isn't scoring... then what the hell good is he?
