    The guy fell to the ground after jumping 3 inches to dunk a ball, on his own.

    Multiple sources confirm N'Diaye can not tie his shoes while chewing bubble gum.

    Looks way better in this recent workout and listed as 7'6 now, would like if Morey took a chance on him.

    The way he jumps makes me nervous for his lower body. The current NBA might make it tough to play a big guy like this. You have to be incredibly skilled to survive. (Yao)

    Thanks for posting this. Pretty nice vid. I do have a question though... How's his PnR defense? :confused:

    He will most likely go undrafted and can be signed to a summer contact to see if there's anything there.

    Upside is a place at the end of some team's bench, clearly will never be a regular rotation guy.

    And to nitpick, he brings the ball down towards his waist way too much.

    Those are some seriously skinny legs and forearms.

    He might be interesting as a back-up, defensive clog. I went to UC Irvine and the program wouldn't even be close to relevant if it weren't for his work. IF anything, Doc Rivers has been getting more than enough examining time because his younger son also plays for UC Irvine.

    Looking at those other giants dudes reminds me of how rare it is that Yao Ming is actually coordinated and skilled.

    Most of those other guys have trouble walking and chewing gum at the same time and says "Hodor" in response to everything.
