He looks like he's much bigger than PJ, I hope he gets some burn with Pascal being out early. He looks really intriguing and good to me

He actually seems like the type of player that could slow down Harden to a degree.

Toronto has to make a decision with him at some point this year. I hope he stays, but it is hard to see it with the way we look pretty capped out the following season.
I think having him as a backup big that play big minutes only in emergency situations but plays as an energy big most nights would be his ideal situation. Long term is he is your 4th or 5th big that can fill in minutes through injuries would be a perfect role. Money wise I would like to ink him to a 3 year 10 mill deal if possible which would be great for us but not sure if that's enough for him.

Lol u clueless.

He was arguably Raptoea best big last season...outplayed pascal often.

He will command $10+ mil per year over a multi year contract next...

I'd agree on the $10m per year. HIs shooting and shotblocking are in demand. The NBA loves stretch bigs and even if he is underweight, he has a lot of great skills for a bench big. Next year is a weak free agent class and there won't be a lot of money available, but there is always someone who will pay for him.

Only 3 teams have capspace next year.

Det / Spurs and I think Houston is the 3rd.

To be honest since his college days hes put on a ton of muscle. The guys huge, him and Siakam are both listed as 230 put OG is noticeably bigger. Maybe 240+. Thinning out a bit would allow him to be lighter on his feet and a more agile and bouncy OG is a real problem for the league. I'm definitely picking him up in any fantasy drafts I do. Even know everyones already predicted he will break out,, signs just keep pointing to it. This might finally be the year.

Boucher is getting $15 mil plus next year if he replicates the season he just had. Look at the deals shooters got like Trent Jr and Robinson. Chris played out of position at C when he is clearly a PF and dominated whenever he got minutes and touches. Had a couple off nights but he's gonna find himself a good situation and I hope he gets paid well.
