Sabonis youngest son

Postby xprt on Tue Aug 14, 2012 11:29 am

Seems Sabonis youngest son is gonna be stud. 6'9'' C/PF only 16 years old but already shows mobility, great passing and elite rebounding. He is one of young european players worth to keep eye on. He is training now with pro team Unicaja in Spain. Teams from NCAA already interested in him.

u16 championships stats:

You can definitely see he has an understanding and feel for the game.

I could see him on live twice and he is really somebody to take into account....

Some comments... He is a 4 and they are trying to drive his evoluation into a 3-4... He does not look like very good in anything but it is almost imposible to find a bad point in relation with any other guy with 16...

I´ll keep an eye on him :roll:

Wow, he had a 27 rebound game :eek: in 32 minutes.

He looks very agile and quick for his size. Like father like son, huh..

He looks like he really has a good feel for the game. Doesn't look overly athletic though. He seems to run the floor well, he just doesn't seem to get OFF the floor that well. But the kid is still 16. Westbrook couldn't dunk until his senior year now he is one of the best leapers in the game.

His dad wasn't the best leaper but he was 7'3". Be interesting to see how much taller this kid gets.

Edit: Actually his dad was a decent leaper before injuries.

You can't tell when a guy is 16, especially with this level of competition. He will probably be an NBA player, but might be the next Ostertag. Impossible to say at this point.

He played first game against pro's with Unicaja in 6 mins 2 rebs. I hope he gets more burn as time goes for 16 years old playing against grown men ( and very high level) is very valuable.
