[Capt. Tuttle]

It did. It’s just cryptic, like JB’s retirement.

I dunno sounds like Kiyan being respectful. Memphis really hasn't done squat under Penny

Melo was a late grower. I've been wondering if Kiyan will have a similar build to his Dad. He seems smaller, but since his Dad had a late growth spurt and muscle gain it's possible Kiyan will too. For frame of reference, this picture popped up in my newsfeed the other day. It was taken 3 years prior to Melo suiting up for Cuse in 2002. Equivalent age to Kiyan in 2022.

I mean this in only an extremely positive manner, absolutely none of the negatives that came with it:

Kiyan and Melo are starting to give me “five-star Dior bringing all of his five-star friends to ‘Cuse” vibes and I am really enjoying it

Kiyan starts showing out a bit with passing, I think he has a real chance to be a McDonald’s if he also fills out a bit.

Totally agree. Eric Bossi of 247S said a few days ago that Kiyan can push into the top 35, if not higher than that.

If you look at Melo as as a sophomore, he was very slight. He had a huge growth spurt. Kiyan might do the same thing.

One potential difference, from a filling out perspective: Melo had likely never seen a weight room at the time of that picture above. Kiyan has lived with the best resources, and likely is already doing all of that work. But yes, kids usually get stronger from age 16-19. From those who’ve watched him, how does he look athletically? I have no doubt about his skillset, and know it will be elite.

It’s scary how reminiscent he looks like Melo shooting the ball I must be getting old

Ring ring...

Good interview (this kid does well with them & Kiyan is a well spoken kid) and worth a listen. LGO!

Bring Bryce with you, Kiyan...
