I know nothing about it. It's a name to watch because, there are no announcers wanting this guy anywhere near the team/network they work for. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The teams that won had more skill, and a higher motor at critical points from what I saw. Def don’t need a 7 footer to win. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In his decision interview, TKR talked like he thought Painter would use him like a 3. Instead he got buried behind Furst and Edy in the big man rotation.

See Kansas State(Nowell), see Texas(Carr), see Houston(Sassar), UConn(Hawkins), etc are a few to name. Bigs can take you far, however, guards will take you farther Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, but the nice thing is he can play the 4 too. Could give us 20 minutes off of the bench, even if only 10-15 of that is at the 5. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
