Full name: Rafael Paulo de Lara Araujo
------------------------------------------------------------------------------Outlook:
Good on low post. Intimidator on defense. Good rebouder.
Outlook (by NBADraft.TK):
Positives: Skilled big man who has really improved over the last few years. Has very refined skills and is fundamentally
sound. Classic big man that does his aspects (rebounding, getting good position, and post up offense) really well. Big
body with a very well filled out frame. Araujo has a good feel for the game and very good basketball instincts and IQ.
Battles well on the boards and gets great positioning. Skilled soft touch around the basket. Finesse on offense agressive
on the defense and while crashing the boards.
Negatives: Not an athletic machine. Doesn't own the best agility and lateral quickness for his size. Although he plays
soccer, it still looks like he needs to work on his footwork on defense. Gets beat a lot by quicker big men. Not that great of
a passer or shotblocker.
