No stats, but you can go to the schedule for recaps. Looks pretty raw and not a good rebounder, but can block some shots.

Not sure if Funkatron is being sarcastic, but maybe a D-league guy with our 2nd 2nd rounder.

In a perfect world this guy would be in a Wolves jersey, and Kevin Harlan would announce for us again.

This guy makes a dunk, Harlan goes crazy = win.

I think we should draft all of these guys. We'd at least get some air time on ESPN.

I still think the funniest name for a basketball player I've heard so far was some women's player from a year or so ago named Ivana Mandic. Middle school must have been awful for her.

mnWI, it's off topic for this thread, but what do you know about John Riek?
"A while back,'' Cardinal said, "I took a picture of the standings and texted it to Love, just to bust his chops,'' Cardinal said. "He sent me a picture back of a snowdrift.''
