6'11 C with a 7'9 wingspan who was also one of the fastest guys end to end at the combine. Also a shot blocking machine and improving jumper. You really dont see the appeal of that?
Highest bust potential in the draft...by far!
you are now on the list.

The biggest appeal is his mind
He’s only been playing ball a short time and he improved so much already. He’s a student of many things. Chess apparently. He really loves embids game and wants to add post up moves
I think this kid might be the best in the draft in a couple years. Though there is a lot of upside competition out there
Bamba makes everyone a better defensive player. The old Knicks had Willis manning the paint which allowed the others to be able to gamble. I've heard Clyde mention that before. god shammgod wrote:you hate mikal and bamba....jesus. if you hate luka and sga you might be me from bizzaro world. do you....love....everyone here ?

That production is good value for a pick in the late teens IMO.
The 1% chance that this is just the beginning is what’s got me all hot and bothered
doesn't this guy have severe back issues?
Didn’t see anything about that

He's an incredibly intriguing talent. As a freshman, he put up 12 ppg, 10 rpg, and 4 bpg. He's got an 8 foot wingspan and he's been working on his shot as well:
He didn't have a great 3 point shooting percentage (27%) in college, but the potential is there.He's also faster than almost any player in this draft, guards included. We'd have two unicorns.
It's only one video, but look how high he got for this dunk: https://www.foxsports.com/college-basketball/video/1110239299513 -- His hand was at the top of the backboard. He's a freak.
And as an added bonus, just imagine this song blasting from the garden's speakers after he has a big play:
