i'm happy for him. Basketball was his life, he was depressed after being diagnosed Marfan. No french clubs wanted to take the risk so he was really disappointed. There is a risk obviously but it's better dying happy than dying depressed.

Just had 41 points (17/22 FG 3/3 on threes), 12 rebounds, 6 assists in a playoffs semi-finals game. Averaged 18/9/3 with 2 blocks this season. Pretty nice to see he's doing well and shining on a basketball court, albeit in a tier C European league.


Great to hear! I was so sad when he had to pull out of the Draft and I assumed his career was over. Good to hear he's playing again.
I was right about 3 point shooting. I expect to be right about Tacko Fall. Some coach will figure out how to use Tacko Fall. This movement towards undersized centers will sweep ng back. Back to the basket scorers will return to the NBA.

Didn't know about his story, but I'm happy for him too. Always good to read a feel good story every once in a while, at least.
