He can ball. I heard he's a cross between Shaq and Stephen Curry

intriguing player. Too bad we only have 1 pick

This guys going to get into the running for a top 3 pick--this is the longest athletic athlete I have seen in years? Ive seen Stanley Johnson and this kid has a higher ceiling just off this video. This is like a Hassan Whiteside from the 4 who can shoot to three.

I usually dont even consider looking at these foreign guys until the last month. They both just had great write ups so I took a look. The only foreign guy I have liked in the last 5 years was Nurkic.

I knew that name sounded familiar. Kudos for being the 1st to talk about him

Not claiming to have discovered him, just find it funny that Briggs had no comment back then.

Because no one knew about him then. Thats why I'm giving you credit

Thanks Guns, much appreciated.

This is the first I saw of him. If he was in the US at Kentucky he'd be in the running for number 1. Im trying to honestly think of a comparison--I havent seen his D but he looks all of the same size and athleticism as a young KG. Here is a young KG video--KG looks stronger but also quite thin.
