Manute Bol's son, Bol Bol, has a new mixtape out. Here you go:

He's gangly just like his dad, but he already seems to possess more skill than his dad had during Manute's NBA days.

Just 14 years old, Bol Bol stands 6-10 and while his father was a premier shot blocker, his son has a polished, all-around game. The rising ninth grader at Overland Park Northwest High School in Kansas City, Kansas. is featured in a new Ball Is Life mixtape, and you can see why he is going to be a highly prized recruit in just a few years.

He definitely has some real skill. I wonder how much more he will grow?


For the youngins who don't know the 7' 7" Manute Bol, here he is (he's the tall one):

Strong name.

Two-three years too soon, let the competition catch up, let him physically develop.

He has a very interesting skill set for his size. Decent handle and looks to pass. Could see him being a good player in the league. Really just depends on how he develops physically the next 5 years.

I gotta say, though, he's got some skill. The coordination hasn't fully caught up maybe, but he's got some real skill.

Imo the coordination is there, he needs way more speed to play the game his video is highlighting, he needs to be in the post.

In the Philippines, Bol-Bol means Pubic Hair. I'm not kidding.

You're right, it's the speed that is missing.

It will be interesting to watch his development.

What I noticed more than his height was freaky orangutan arms.

Very Cabocloesque!

As a general rule, 2 Bol's are better than one.

How do you tell which Bol is his first and last name?

<<SNIP>>

For those unacquainted with Manute. This picture makes a much better first impression. He's that loch ness in the pool

BTW, it needs to be said:

RIP Manute. A great guy with such a kind heart and a great sense of humor.

You can't help but root for this kid, who lost his dad at such a young age. SJS is such a difficult way to die.

Future 3pt contest winner.

HGH not even once

Bol Bol the 7'6" stretch center

The kid has some skill, but dear god I cannot stand to watch that shooting motion.

damn what a cool pic.

It's seeing people like this that make me realize how talented Durant is. Durant is like what 7 feet now? And he seems so much more agile and smooth than other people his height. Bol Bol the way he moves and the speed at which he does things reminds me of Bruno Caboclo.
