For example, in his league, there are three guys averaging over 8.0 boards a game. Besides, him, the other two are 6'4 and 6'7. I'd like to see him exposed more to playing people his size. He's worth taking a shot on though.

Yeah, athleticism is certainly a concern but you know any big frame with some talent is going to be given a chance at the next level. For what it is worth Robin Lopez only managed 8 points and 11 boards in 35 minutes against Siena. In Thompson's two games against Siena he went 23-21 and 26-24 so if nothing else he's better than that giant stiff masquerading as a basketball player for Stanford.

Thompson's brother is a nice player but won't be NBA bound.

I don't like either of the Lopez brothers. Robin is especially horrible.
