Israel has been the surprise of the tourney and is currently playing in the Semi-finals
among their ranks there's a young freshman from Yale, an American\Israeli Center named Danny Wolf

he is putting on a dominating run despite barely being able to get off the bench at Yale
he is doing this with a Jokic-like game, aided by his passing and rebounding

I only managed to find this clip and it's in Hebrew, I don't speak the language so Idk what the commentators are saying but still:

;t=92s

is there something to learn here about the state of American basketball?
it's not like Yale is some elite program, how does a guy who barely plays at Yale with clearly a very unique game not find a bigger role on such a program?

can't find stats for this but I looked at some of the games and his numbers are very impressive and he's arguably a leading candidate atm for this tourney's MVP

he's a legit 7'0, with a soft touch and elite passing and clearly he can play as he's dominating in this U20 Championship

to be clear, I don't think he's an NBA level prospect or anything, i'm just trying to understand how a 7'0 19 year old guy with his skillset can't find a real role at Yale and what does that say about the development aspect in these American programs

thoughts?

edit: i'm watching the the Semi-Finals rn and Wolf has 17 pts and 18 rebs after 3 quarters, continuing his dominating run



Props for being the first guy on Wolf lol
But goddamn that video was hard to watch. Why would anyone make a highlight video with slowmotions and breaks every single second? Does he think we are kindergardeners that he needs to show us the pass to the cutter in slow motion cause we wouldn't understand what was going on otherwise?


Do you speak Hebrew? If you don't understand what the guy is saying it may prevent you to enjoy the video :)

So. Maybe it was done this way because it's not actually highlight video but rather explanation how because of great Wolf's performance Israel U20 which was not supposed to be great team, and was shooting horrendously from 3P - still made it to semifinals at time when video was made (and then to finals and lost only in OT to France) and why Wolf should be added to Israel NT ASAP.
