Good suggestion Briggs.
This kid doesn't look like an NBA atlete -- in terms of foot speed and jumping ability but he has size, touch, toughness and intangibles.
Saw alot of pick & pop or pick & pop in his workout tape --- wonder if he has the ability moves in the post to score the ball down there. He's obviously not like Muscala down there but would be nice if he had a few go to moves in the post.

Here are the numbers against ranked opponents during the regular season
New Mexico # 14 15 pts 14 rebounds 2 blocks 2 assists
San Diego State#15 18-pts 11 rebounds 2 blocks 2 assists
New Mexico again #16 26 points 15 rebounds 1-1
Conference final against UNLV 24 points 16 rebounds
Louisville number 1 overall and champs 9 points 7 rebounds 2 blocks 2 assists
Remember this team was a pretty high RPI(20 overall) team--they played good teams all year and got to round 2 of NCAA's
I wish I could find the UNLV games I wonder if he defended Anthony Bennett at all. Bennett had real poor numbers in 2 of the games
Is there 1 other player in this draft 7 feet 265w his skills. He's going to be a very high 2 at worst and may sneak into 1. Just compare. He's 40 pounds heAvier than either deny or wither. Those guys

His size alone should get him drafted in the Top 45
After watching the finals Im down lets take him. The Knicks best chance to beat Miami is to find a big hulking Center.Also Roy Hibbert isnt going anywhere anytime soon. Trade back with Clev and get him and another player

I think this guy has a chance to be a Brad Miller type over time--I dont see him being a franchise changer next year! There is honestly several sleeprs in this draft Colton is just one.
