Pros:

Strong finisher around the basket
Excels at scoring on off-ball motion plays
Adequate low post scorer
Decent playmaker for his size
Fairly solid rebounder
Above average athlete
Solid motor

Cons:

Needs to improve his outside shot
Can be reluctant to take outside shots

Summary:

Izan Almansa is a strong, athletic big man that excels at making hustle plays to help his team on both ends of the floor. He also is a good passer for his size, and he also can handle the basketball. He’ll need to expand his skill set offensively and be a more disciplined defender in games, but Almansa could end up being a second round pick in the 2025 draft.
