Kevin Seraphin

He'll be the first big off the bench and he'll destroy most if not all opposing bigs. And with Nene and Okafor's injury history, he'll end up starting at some point and playing a lot of minutes.

IMO there is no way that KS doesn't start next year
Okafor all his career has been a bit overrated. He is a still a good rebounder, but Ks is now better than him in blocks and of course in post ups
Okafor should come from the bench and let Ks grow
That's in the interest of the franchise to let young great potentials improve as starters
But Vesely must come from the bench

First unit : KS, Nene
Second unit : Vesely, Okafor

Blatch, Booker : traded

Warrior fan here, I'm extremely impressed with Seraphin's improvement last season. If there were an award for in season MIP he'd have won it last season (vs improvement from one year to the next). I'd love to see GSW trade the 7th pick for him but the Wiz shouldn't do that. Seraphin is on my list of players to keep an eye on next season.

and on its face, perhaps far-fetched considering. But that's what they
said.

Where can I find the article on this?

Isn't Noah questionable for the Olympics w/ his ankle injury? If he's out, Seraphin will have a big opportunity this suimmer.

Looks like a lot of posts in french, which is infinitely better than twitter posts about a fake french alter-ego, "Pierre".

Great game for Kevin with French NT against a very weak Italian NT. He was MVP of the game with 15pt (7/8) 7rb in an easy +20 victory. He really gained a lot of confidence since we saw him last summer, he is a major player for France now, a real force inside. Many people think he can be starter at the center position instead of Noah. He's far superior in scoring with his back to basket, his shot and soft touch around the rim, although he's a bit undersized and not the best at catching rebounds.

Keep an eye on Rudy Gobert who played with Seraphin in Cholet Basket, he made his first step in French NT and was very impressive with his height (7'2), wingspan (7'9), great hands and mobility, major prospect here in France, he has tons of upside

Thanks coutourmant! I like how aggressive he is with his left hand.

In his second game agianst Italy Seraphin posted 11pt 7rb. He did a good job despite being unlucky with two missed dunks.
Even in a bad day, Seraphin showed he was one of the best players for France.
His relation with Boris Diaw is very promising in this team

Thanks, coutourant. I love the updates.

wiretap says Noah dropping out of Olympics. This should create even more
opportunity for Kevin. Just hope he doesn't get hurt.

Wouldnt Seriphin play for france and noah for USA? I dont see how Noahs backing out would change anything.

Noah plays on the French team, J-Ves.

With Noah's withdrawal (it's official), Seraphin will be starter for France at Olympics ! Great spot for him to shine !
The only question is how will do France without Noah's elite rebounding, as we were dependant of his production in this area last year. France used to be one of the worst rebounding team in International competition before Noah came on.
We expect Seraphin to step up in this area, but I really like him as a starter with his offensive skills and low-post defense.
