people are sleeping on him. I'm not sure why.
His defense is very suspect, but his offensive talent is undeniable. He's just a VERY efficient scoring big with a nice jump shot, he can hit 3's, he can score inside.
If Spo can make him a decent defender (big if)- he's a huge steal.

I don't know what is wrong with this guy but it must be something serious. A guy his size and his age who can hit a 3 and has as many highlights as he does should not be getting passed around the league and signing minimum deals. He must be a mental defective or something.

This is an excellent swing for the fences signing. if he can catch on he can be huge for us. Love this move so far. He has one of the craziest measurements. If heat can turn him into a good defender that is all we need from him.

I'm excited too but if he's as soft as Charmin we know Spo is going to park him on the bench like Beasley again. Same old story

Yeah i havnt seen much of him but at least he averages almost a blk per gm in under 20 min for his career so hopefully he can provide a bit of rim deterrence.

Ideally he replaces Cody Zeller.....that's a win no matter how you slice it. Nice pick up for MIA.

Trust me as a Wizards fan,
He's the worst defensive big I've ever seen. Dude has cement feet. He's solid going straight, but cannot move laterally. I don't see how he fits in your defensive scheme. There's a reason LAL traded him, and Denver never played him despite his offensive stats. He's unplayable in the playoffs.

Have to assume we’ll play a lot of zone when he’s in the game….

This. Why i'll wait until he gets acclimated into out system & play his 1st gm before judging. Let's see what coach & crew can do w/ him.

I was watching clips of him and he looks clumsy talented on offense. He seems to set maybe the worst screens I've ever seen from a big man. I suspect that he won't last long here.

Well there goes that joy. Zeller was a hustler but in general a net negative. With Bryant, we can at least get some scoring from the 5 spot but I'll side with the others & see how he fits especially defensively before I pencil this in as a win.
