Mack is a skilled, savvy prospect on the interior. He doesn’t have the elite athleticism that some of his frontcourt counterparts do but makes plays with his size / skill. In that way, Mack’s current game reminds me of a young Noah Dickerson.

Mack is a post player who still has some baby fat on his frame. He has quick feet, but limited lift. He could turn out similar as a prospect to Omari Spellman (Villanova freshman).

Location: Under Armour Best of the Best Grind Session (Atlanta, Ga.)
Mack is a big body post player with soft feet. He has a good motor and will use that to rebound effectively in his area. He has a frame that could easily stretch out to 6-10 or more. He showed a great reverse pivot into a jumper. He is probably a year away before he can consistently make a post move, take contact and finish at this level.
