The board was wondering about whether we are

[dasher]

Calling him a Center. Isn't he kind of short for that?

Not really. Not for what this staff wants him to do.

 

[dasher]

Well well well…..@Dasher nails it like always

Jake was also on top of this. I also said we would hear in a week or so back on june 20, so I have to own that as well.

 

[UpstateSM]

Does he smoke ciggies?

 

[Cusefan0307]

I found this on him. It appears he played in the France u21 league last year and averaged 10 and 7 along with 2 assists on high efficiency. He doesn’t appear to be a shot blocker.

Yeah, I need more than that. That is filler.

Bunch of videos on his IG-

Couple things that stand out-

Plays with an edge and is aggressive around the rim looks to dunk it a lot but has a great touch too.

Overall seems to have a really high motor. Good looking jump shot with a soft touch. Not his go to on offense but seems very capable.

Definitely likes to get out on the break and fills the lane well and as noted attacks the rim.

Variety of moves in the halfcourt.

I see he averaged 2 apg but haven’t seen tape of that yet. Can see how he can be pretty effective on the glass the way he seals his man in the post and with how aggressive he plays.

Again that’s just a quick review of what’s out there so take that fwiw.

 

[Cusefan0307]

He shot 57% overall, 23% from 3 on 43 attempts and 68% from the line.

 

[dasher]

This is a good league and this kid has been playing against older players.

 

[dasher]

lol

i'll be shocked if there are any additions to the roster

Shocked? Or just surprised?

 

[MSOrange]

Thanks dasher for your information and especially your patience throughout this thread. Nice to have another forward for depth this year. We'll see what he can do.

And for everyone else who feels the need to criticize dasher and others who have inside information, let this be another lesson to get a life. Take the information and see what develops and then you can decide who to believe from there. But keep your mouth shut so they don't stop posting.

According to the article, he has a nice soft "touching touch", so we have that going for us.

"His game consists of a variety of post moves, passing skills and the ability to pick-and-pop with a nice, soft touching touch"

if basketball doesn't end up working out for him it sounds like he could be a masseuse with that soft touching touch.

 

[CuseMan4]

About as good a get you can get at the end of the cycle. May not play a lot this year but he’ll play next year.

Exactly what you expect from a European player. Fundamentally sound, good low post game, nothing flashy, high IQ, gets the job done and moves onto the next play. Quite literally exactly what we needed.

Seems like Red and staff like their bigs that can pass too. This kid has a high IQ for the game and knows where the ball should be. Lampkin and Davis are the same way and very good passers for bigs. I think we’ll see some really good ball movement this year compared to last year

 

[cardiac]

smart to get a young forward since the whole frontcourt is out of eligibility next year

 

[pearl31]

I am a fan of this late pick-up, looks like he can contribute now and has some upside as well

Bell and Freeman would have more but I won't be surprised if next season is their last.

 

[Niastri]

Does the new guy deserve his own thread?

yes as would i

 

[Cusefan0307]

[RoofBeam]

Yaaaay, finally!...Hoisted on his own Petar!

 

[walsh2012]

I wonder when we’ll hear about this possible new addition. I really hope we have landed another PF/C.

Bump

They use the metric system over there. No one knows how tall they really are until the get an American tape measure on them.

 

[Red2003]

He shot 57% overall, 23% from 3 on 43 attempts and 68% from the line.

That’s on a European court tho. They measure %’s different I think.

That magnificent bastard Dasher was right !!!

Sounds like he can help kick start the offense if we get stuck in the muck. Again, not trying to be negative, just needed more than the article.

If he can handle and move and pass, good by me.

 

[longtimefan]

Is there any real evaluation of this kid? Not knocking the get, got to use our scholarships, but the article doesn't have too much.

Is your glass ever more than half-full?
