So when is our G-League team coming up? That would help this cause as well...

Update
Damn the Pacers beat us to it. Apparently he just signed with them while JJ was twiddling his thumbs yet again. None of these guys were worthy of being signed?

GOK what do you think of Oscar Tshiebwe?

Looks like a solid rebounder and inside scorer although undersized and a total non threat to shoot 3's?

Game looks a little like Al Jefferson to me being an undersized center with decent inside game. Looks like a player we could take a flyer on as a back up C?

He's solid. Kind of a thicker, stronger but lesser athletic Biyombo. He's a monster rebounder and decent positional defender. But his lack of mobility and fluidity/ recovery is a weakness currently keeping him from being a strong defender. He does have a really strong defensive post presence though and is a monster rebounder with his 6'9 260 lb frame and 7'4 wingspan. He's really just got to work on his overall speed and lateral mobility. But I'd still absolutely take him on a two way because of his elite rebounding and physicality!

As for Al Jefferson, Really there's one player playing for Wyoming that's a literal clone of Jefferson in so many ways man. Graham Ike (Wyoming). 6'9 255 lb old school big with a 7'5 wingspan and giant hands (bigger than Kwahi Leonard's) :o

This kid is closer to Al Harrington than anyone in along time...lol. Could really be interesting in 24'. :wink:

DeAndre Williams of Memphis is a versatile defensive wing that's also has some playmaking abilities and is a good shooter too. He's currently undrafted still ( I believe). He'd be a great frontcourt secondary playmaker defensive wing/ forward off the bench additionally to Camara.

Suns add Louis Olinde to their Summer league roster. Info hasn't really been released yet, but he's a fluid, long, versatile rangy wing with smooth athleticism similar to nick Batum, but not as good of a defender, and really needs to add significant strength. But definitely an intriguing talent!
