He clearly is a special and multi-faceted talent, but I am worried.  Most of all, I am worried by his body shape, which reminds me of both Pervis Ellison and Shawn Bradley, with a height somewhere in between those two.  Players with that kind of physique typically have problems a) avoiding injuries, and b) avoiding foul trouble (they are not always strong enough to hold their ground, they tend to reach a lot, and they tend to be fooled by fakes).

So can he stay on the court?  I am not picking him to win Rookie of the Year, as some big men take much longer to develop (I am looking more at the five blocks than the 2-13 shooting in his Summer League debut).  Let’s hope he gets the chance.
