Yeah he can play the 5 with those measurements and small lifts.


He's 262? Yeah that's why he was kinda slow on the tape. I'm still going to reserve my judgement on how he's going to match up against the true bigs in the league. Though you don't need him to since you have Hartenstein. He'll be backup, and see how he develops. He's not athletic. He can't jump.

OKC still needs athletic SFs IMO.


Lots of us did not eant him because physical profile that just describes WCJ

Welcome to people's names in other countries not being weird in their countries.

Was a little joke.


Joan Mir is also pronounced this same way (Former MotoGP Champion)

He fell massively. Or is being slotted right.

Traore was my early hype train favourite over a year ago.

Then **** Harper landed in our lap.

Walter Clayton Jr's daughter receives plenty of camera time with all the success her father has been having.

The young man is a winner!

It's only because Nolan played against pros. Him falling this far is a mistake. He should have been a top-10 pick.

This is what makes the Yang pick puzzling. Level of competition MUST be considered.
