Should be titled Sacred Ground Part II.

This will do, but you disappoint me.

Brother from another mother?



Rui Hachimura is actually half Japanese. His mother is Japanese while his father is from the small African country of Benin. Born in Japan, he will be heading into his sophomore season for Gonzaga. He's a 6'8" wing with long arms and huge hands. Fran Fracshilla called him a "man child". Supposedly an extremely bright, energetic and charismatic player.

Here's clips of some of his best plays with Gonzaga. Half of the highlights are defensive. A lot of arms, legs and athleticism with great intensity on both ends. A lot of impressive natural instincts...and some crazy ass old school one handed tomahawk dunks (thanks probably to the spatulas he has for hands).



Knicks would have crazy length if you pair him up with Porzingis and Ntilikina at the 5, 3 and 1.

Hachimura is on the raw side and didn't get a lot of playing time but Mark Few thought enough of him to not bother redshirting him as a freshman. That says a lot. He should be getting a lot of time this season and be featured. So will be interesting for sure.

This draft is not 5 deep as most people say. When its all said and done this draft might go 10-13 deep with players. All might not be super franchise types on face value, but its deep with the potential of really good players when the year comes to an end. Frank and KP softens the Blow ALOT if you ask me.

If you end up with a pick and he's STILL miraculously on the board, he'd be a HARD prospect to pass up.
