Kirilenko does a little bit of everything and a lot of blocking shots, just an obscene amount. Mixes it up sometimes by playing passing lanes well to steal the ball before a shot even goes up, but the name of the game is blocks. Showing the ability to guard both the perimeter and the post if necessary, he'll take the top defensive assignment on most nights, and his defensive rebounding suffers accordingly. Andrei has a solid jumper and is good from the line, but he doesn't get there often as he's not aggressive enough with the ball in his hands, and doesn't do enough to get open for threes or make them once he is. Has a reliable post game but needs to add some weight and strength if he ever wants to be a #1 scorer. Does well to move the ball both on outlet passes, and in the half court. Although only 19, scouts don't see a lot of future growth for Kirilenko - he just doesn't seem to want it.
