Dude looks rough af. My guess is he plays a year and an NBA team completes his development.

7’9” Freshman? Yoooooo! Probably does 1.5 at Florida, then into the draft, low pick and off the G-League for development.

That’s a tall AF accountant

Every clip I’ve seen of him getting the ball he brings it down below his shoulders.

Will someone pass him the ball? He’s wide open.

lol i’m weirdly able to talk on this guy from my time spent at IMG academy – he was signed as a ha ha joke and the coaches thought he’d be their wemby ticket but the dude was getting cooked by the 18th man on the bench for 4 years
florida is being whack signing him as it’s a publicity stunt except unlike boban he actually has zero fundamentals

It is impressive that he is not too skinny.

For a dude his height, he already looks In excellent shape. His build isn’t wemby-like but more like a slimmed down edey
QultyThrowaway
I hope he can make it in the league. He’s definitely the most fluid looking almost 8 fter Ive ever seen.

There’s something cold about recording a kid at practice and using the clip to tell twitter that you don’t expect him to play much at all lol

7’9″ ???? What in the actual fuck. He seems proportional too which bodes well vs the slenderman type body when people get that big.

just get position in the paint and catch high, turn around and throw it in/ dunk it without ever bringing the ball below his shoulders. dude has the verticality to finish at the rim without even jumping. and how do defenders even deny him the ball if his standing reach is above their ability to defend
Artimusjones88
Ffs don’t bring the ball down…
I_Heart_Lager
Pretty tough look to get a 3 second call with no defender.

Draymon licking his lips hoping this dude makes it to the league so he can hammer the shit out of him.

Tacko Fall looked similar during his Freshman season. If he puts in the work, I wouldn’t be surprised if he’s an effective college player in a few years.

Tall ass mfers got the memo in the late 90s that being tall af and not falling apart while moving is worth at least an NBDL contract.
This guy at least looks built for action. Skill set is not visible, but at that height, it’s jump, catch, and don’t foul out.
Certain-Estimate4006
Clearly has a lot of work to do get a little smoother and more polished but I’m not sure how he doesn’t crack the rotation. He looks way less awkward than Tacko when running.

I hope he doesn’t put on weight. It’ll just make him slower.

Keep that ball high big fella.

Still shocked he didn’t end up at Purdue.

He looks as agile as a toaster.
rebrando23
I just fail to understand how someone with that sort of disruptive size couldn’t immediately make a big impact at the college level. It’s not like he looks like he’s a twig that could snap at the slightest of contact either, he’s built. There will be teams where he has an entire foot on their tallest player. Should just be an offensive cheat code vs most teams.

Put him at the 5 and Wemby at the 4

Dude is 5 inches taller than Wembanyama.

Crazy that this kid is this tall and made it to this level and still hasn’t learned to keep the ball up high. You have such a height advantage but then you’re going to bring the ball into a super low pocket where it can get stripped before going up.

Catches ball at rim level – immediately lowers it into any would be defenders
lostincoloradospace
That ball will get stripped every time bringing it down like that to jump.
