Message: [QUOTE="Jasoncuse, post: 2521551, member: 470"] Kid looks pretty good as a player, but I wonder about the fit, though that probably isn't a huge issue. If he's 6'8", that may be a problem, but he's got some bulk and looks to have long arms to make up for not being 6'11" or so. He doesn't look overly athletic and seems to play below the rim, so that may be an issue. We've had success with Arinze and Rick Jackson in recent years, and a 6'9" Christmas, so he could work his way into the middle of the zone just fine. He doesn't look capable of playing the wing at this point, but Jackson did some of it, so you never know. For depth, especially heading into 2018-2019 when we have to hope Sidibe will be healthy, it would make a ton of sense to add this kid with the open ship. I wouldn't expect much for a few years and would still hope we go after a big time Center at some point. We badly need some athleticism combined with some strength. Enough with the string beans.
