On one picture he is relaxed on the other his muscles are flexed. Comparison made to deceive. The most change i see on his face :)
My money is on Banchero going number 1 !

the weight is all that matters to me. didn't expect him to be 240 at this time... let alone the entire offseason. lol. at this rate 245-250 is achievable by the start of the season... and those number are well in the range of bigman weight. Even that 240 is there. But with his length i would like to see him at 250-255lb when he's all filled out. Keep it up big fella

15 points in 15 minutes? I like how he looked offensively with range out to the 3 point line. Not corner 3's either which is the shortest 3 but top of the key, if that 3 ball is consistent then that's going to be a big weapon off the bench. What i didn't like was the effort defensively, got caught falling asleep a few times and out of position. I'm thinking it was conditioning because he was sucking wind out there. He needs to bring his effort defensively up.... Way up or he's always going to be on the bench. Defensively I should be seeing effort similar to Mitchell Robinson especially when you have more length than him.

They're probably just easing him back into action since he's returning from injury. Just precautionary. I'm not too worried.

Has nothing to do with injuries... hell, we barely played him last Summer League before the injuries. Our FO is just super conservative when it comes to playing SL mins.

I was bored and browsing through Facebook just now when I came across the post for a Fansided article about the worst draft picks in franchise history of each team.

I know, I know, it’s Fansided ... did I mentioned I was bored?

Anyways, somehow they chose Mo Bamba as the worst draft pick in Orlando history!!?

How can anyone who cares enough about the NBA to take the time to write such an article believe that?

The answer to this question has to be Fran Vasquez, right?

I guess you could argue for Mario since he was such a high pick.

Yep knew he wasn't going to play in all the games I'm fine with it. Look what happened to Zion in his first game.
