Does he have knee problems too?

If so, sign him up, exactly what JB wants

Similar to this kid, Im shocked JB never pursued Taco Fall.

He would raise the bar for the center in the zone. Cover both corners at once.

Canada.

America's Hat.

Who's bringing the biggest bag for this kid ... Cal or Pearl?

 

[Cuse181]

He’s starting to fill out from a couple years ago (duh) so he looks like he can actually hold himself up, but probably not going to be much of a player considering how hard it is to put weight on and keep the knees healthy.

Unreal. Future James Bond Villian.

Read the article to see if we were being Sidd Finched.

Whoever corrected the year on my original post, thank you. Obviously I’m a walk-on that usually only reads. Unlike Jesse, my post game is weak.

He was 5-2 in kindergarten, I thought my kids were big but wow!

Meet the tallest teen in the world. He’s 15, from Montreal and is 7-foot-5 | Globalnews.ca

Here is another fun fact. Rioux wears size 20 shoes, which are about 14 inches long.

Man the dome would sell out every night just to get a glimpse of this kid.

This is one of the most hilarious highlight videos out there.
When he was 12 at 6'10, he still played on a lower rim.
LOL at the kid guarding him in the post at the 0:15 mark.

Lol. Takes me back to my 3ft tall nerf rim days. Good times

 

[hoopsupstate]

I liked when he stared down the kid after he blocked him.

I can imagine him screaming “get that s^#* out of here”

The only thing that matters here is the post/like ratio and you're getting a great start to it. The future is bright.

My son is about to turn 15 and he's 5'2

 

[dollarbill44]

I cant believe he was allowed to play in that 12 year old league. Nobody gained anything from that.
I would have to think being on his team would have been cool for the first game and then not at all after that.

Nope. Canadian.

 

[Ringostar57]

Imagine going thru a whole game and not having to jump. Can he?

 

[Cuse181]

Nope. Canadian.

“Good try der bud, better luck next time, eh?”
