    It was weird to me how many people I've seen suggesting the Rockets pick Kai Sotto in the first round. Dude didn't get drafted. I wouldn't mind inviting him to the summer league team though. He's huge.

    Nothing yet. He seems to be a good developmental player. He just needs a more mature body. But I can see all the tools to be a good stretch center. At least he can be a good backup center for a lot of teams even for limited minutes. I can see glimpses of Rik Smits like production with him. I hope he's signed.

    As long as we don't draft Kai Sotto, I'm good.

    Kai Sotto fans makes Lin fans look like saints.

    Seriously, look it up on social media. It's a general consensus amongst rabid Sotto fans that he's a top 3 pick this draft. lmao :rolleyes:

    He and Jalen are both Phillipino, would be nice to have them on the Rox.

    Armando Bancot? 6'11, terrific rebounder and can shoot

    Maybe we can pick up Oscar Tshibwe out of Kentucky as our back up big and just let him rebound the missed 3 point shots from the rest of the team. He is skilled but for the 80’s not the modern era & his age being a senior => I doubt he is drafted. Great defenseman and rebounder. Good player for Sengun to play in practice, too.

    I like Oscar, his 7'3.5" wingspan for 6'7.25"/253 player is outstanding. Someone will take him in the 2nd. Would love to buy a pick and draft him. He's got the kind of relentless attitude that Ime and this team needs.
