Summary
Darius makes up for his lack of height with a strong frame, toughness, and ability to spread the floor. He can defend multiple positions with the strength to defend bigs and lateral quickness to defend wings. Offensively, he likes to shoot the PnP and the trail 3's from the top of the key; he has to become a more consistent shooter as his percentages fluctuate over his first two seasons. He likes to crash the offensive glass, as he was the team's leading offensive rebounder last season, securing valuable extra possession.
