    Can't wait to see him not make the training camp roster.


    Remember that 6'6" center we had like four years ago?

    We'll see. His 44 point highlight is pretty decent, but it is the NBA D-league.

    Just went and looked at his college stats, how are you a PG and your career high in assists per game is 1.5?

    Is this a sign a perimeter player is gone since otherwise we'd have no need to bring another one in? I can hope right?

    From what i can tell, dude is 65-6'6 and 210 lbs. That's like, Kobe size. Went o college for 4 years, then hit europe and the D-League. The guy has experience, just not NBA experience.
    And yeah low assists in college for a PG, but how much of his time was spent at PG? I'd assume he played a decent bit of SG consideirng his size.
    And checking this out:
    http://stats.nbadleague.com/playerSt...layerID=203587
    In 2013-14 on the Toros, he averaged 18.0 ppg, 3.0 apg, 4.8 rpg, 1.7 spg. Shooting 47.5% FG%, 37.6% 3FG% and 79.0% FT%.
    And maintaining 2.3 Turnovers per game.

    It's not awful at all. Might be worth it.

    Edit: Also, on a team with plenty of scorers, you'd ahve to assume his assists per game would go up. Maybe he ahd to shoulder a lot of scoring on his previous teams. Who knows? Sure he'll have plenty of players on this team to pass to.

    Wondering if ESPN just listed it wrong or if he was just playing out of position in college, but he's as pure of a 2 as you are going to get.

    No because that is the trend if these younger athletes. I am not concerned at all as long as his head is in the game.
