Summary:
Martinas Geben is a tough, physical big man that can make high motor plays on both ends of the floor to help his team. He can get plenty of scores around the basket, and he also can score in the post as well as off the dribble on occasion. He does a good job of scoring on rolls to the rim as well as off of put backs, and he also rebounds the ball well.
While he may not possess elite physical tools, Geben will bring energy and tenacity, and he is a fundamentally sound basketball player whose competitiveness could potentially help him land a roster spot in the NBA.
