Nets sign G Yakuba Ouattara to Two-Way Deal

interesting, looks like he can shoot.

I'll call him by his real name Yakuba though for three reasons:

1) No one should have to "Americanize" their name to be accepted in this country. I hate when people do that. Your name is your name. Like when Mikhail Prokhorov tells people to call him 'Michael' :noway:

not all of us 'muricans are so culturally inept that we can't handle the fact that other cultures have different names not common to ours.

2) It sounds cool

3) Billy is a name that causes my blood pressure to raise.

Great moove for you guys ! Ouattara is a very good def player, very physical in the French League (one of the most physical in Europe) ! Played last year for Monaco and had a great success ! You guys won't be disapointed !

The more I watch him play, the more I like him. He's crazy athletic. Not just his explosiveness, but his agility around the rim.

If he's a good defensive player, I'm on board.

Nets signed another guard? Sounds like Goodwin, & Kilpatrick are gone to me

Explosive athlete. I wonder how his defense is, could be a good KJ replacement.

I know people like Kilpatrick but no need to post highlights in another player's thread. Kilpatrick stans should keep to his thread.

Someone is going to get pushed in that backcourt depth for their job by this guy.

Dude shoots 40% 3PT, is supposedly a good defender, and is a beast dunker at 6'3"/6'4".
