    I don't care whether he said it but he's clearly not telling the truth and is wrong.

    Not sure actually, just found this stream a couple minutes before the half was over.

    Is Sengun getting too tall?

    He had a pretty athletic block--should have been two but the other one was called goaltending. He definitely looks more explosive. Dunno about the "he grew taller" stuff but there does appear to be more verticality in his game.

    In pregame lineups where he was standing next to one of the Turkey players listed at 7’1, he looked at most 1-2 inches shorter.

    since alpi cannot be 6’11,
    the only reasonable explanation is that the other guy is lying too.

    If he gets too tall; he'll be labeled injury prone.

    Agreed. I feel like in a year or two he might be the same height as Chris Paul.

    That's how he can finally be trusted to initiate the offense.

    Could be that casual nba fans follow summer league alot more closely than a euro tournament? (I am guessing this is a euro tournement) just imagine a world where not everything is a conspiracy.

    PS he looked good and that is exciting

    Yeah. i still have high hopes for Amens play making also. I think him and Sengun as a duo might be a real problem for the league one day if they are still around.

    Clippers don’t even want to give up a Terance Mann for Harden yet this dumb old walnut wants to give up all this for a worthless sac. Of course he’d sell Sengun short.
