    he's going to be a great addition to the nba. I think the age restriction should not be applied in this case, since ricky plays at the pro level already. Any Victor Claver fans?

    He is skinny and weak and doesn't have the greatest ups, but he is pretty good.

    There is a rule about this. It's something like "All International players are eligible to be drafted after they turn 22 years of age". However, that only guarantees the team drafting them their rights should the player decide to go to the NBA. Some players just choose not to go to the NBA. Remember how many years it was before Sabonis gave the NBA a shot? And Fran Vasquez apparently has no desire to relocate to the States either.
