MyBB Big visiting this Weekend
6'9" 245lbs

This is the one I was hoping for. I've been tracking him for a few months(since he started appearing on UAB coaches twitter follows). He was having a really good season before being sidelined by a knee injury just before JUCO playoffs. Let's lock him down...

Let's make sure Rob Williams takes him to Cheesecake Factory this weekend.

He looks like the guy to give us true post depth.

He plays like a true big inside. I like this kid. Cross your fingers.

Tosin Mehinti might be of help as well.

If he hopes to play at the next level, he better learn to shoot from three.

He makes about 2 per game, shooting them at a 38% clip since the trade.
made 131 at 36% for the season. He may be crazy, but he can shoot inside and out.

Marc Gasol is considered to be a top three center in the NBA. He had 104 threes this year and his best year ever.

He had made a combined 12 threes in 8 previous seasons.

The old school center has gone away in the NBA. There are a handful of guys, but not nearly as many as their used to be. Even Karl Anthony towns is stretching the floor in the NBA in his second year. The game has evolved.

Cousins shoots three, the guy you're probably looking for is Andre Drummond who doesnt post up as much as he should

Any word on Big Jon ?

Not that I've seen. Not sure who our backup target is for a big if he doesn't sign.
