He is 10th I think. He is 7 feet tall and a really good athlete. Kind of raw but may develop into a Tyson Chandler type.

KIND of?
He is sushi raw.
He has not been born yet raw.

Holy crap.
No hands.
No basketball sense.
No pivot moves, no offensive skills whatsoever.
I watched him multiple times this year.

Reclaimation, reclaimation.
He will be a true project.

Fransisco Elson is a better athlete
thatn Jordan and he is just flat out
a bad basketball player that happens to
be an athlete.

Is Mel Kuiper doing this rating also?

He is 19 and 7 feet 260. He can run and jump. You can teach guys how to play basketball but there are very few with the physical tools that he has. I have no idea if he will work hard enough to become a good NBA player or just be a second stringer but the guy has the physical parts.

Even if he does work hard I have my doubts.
He was absolutely awful. Its not like he just started
playing. He looks like some foreign kid that they saved
from being eaten who has never played.


But then again so
was Hakeem his freshman year at Houston.
But he had never played before.
And there was some basic instinct and
he moved his feet very well (soccer in Nigeria I think).

I think its money down the tube with Jordan if he comes
out this raw. He will totally lose confidence, even if he steps
on a developmental league court at this time.
