NY KNICKS FANS ARE GOING TO LOVE THIS GUY!

I think that we may be stuck with loving lance thomas and sweet lou instead.

Played at Ohio, not Ohio State
Overlooked

Not even graded on draft sites

A. At 6-9 with those long arms he is a disruptive help defender
B. We play the triangle and he has a gorgeous release in the mid range with full range out to 3.
C. We saw him make some nice passes and its always good to have a willing passer
D Easily can be described as an inside out player which in the NBA is imperative quite diverse
E. He can handle the ball up court
F His physical profile is unique. Its almost like finding a new age Michael Cooper or something like that. Evene with a verbal I dont want to chance another team using cap space over us--we can control him for 4 years using 1.4mm

Thats my take with him---A 4 year contract at the min first 1.5 years guaranteed the 2nd 2 team options--that 1.4mm a spit in the nBA.

Please keep him.

I can't believe how sweet that midrange jumper looks , wasn't expecting that.

A lot of guys that go undrafted get on a team and put on a show in SL and never end up on a NBA roster. I'm only saying this cause some on here are already comparing him to players that had long great careers and he's only played 3 games and they were in the SL. Like i said i'm a big fan of the kid and love what i've seen and i have absolutely no idea how he'll be in the NBA just like anyone else even though from what i've seen i'd say he's a keeper for sure and i hope we find a way to get him on the roster. I'm very excited to see what he does in these SL playoffs which our first game i think is tomorrow at 4:30.

Yes, we might be jumping the gun. He was not an unknown, he played four years in college, 2 at Monroe College then two at Ohio. His play at Portsmouth didnt draw any raves. He also went to pre draft workouts and did all the tests but he was not drafted in 2 rounds and very few kids fall thru the cracks of evaluators. He is light for the position he is best suited for. There are also young players having great SL like the kid the other day who hit six straight three pointers agaisnt us who will not be considered NBA spots despite their success. Having said all that, Dnour has some good traits that could translate to NBA , speed, quick hops, motor, outside shot . Think Jax will invite him to camp with smallest of guarantees and they will go from there

The future of undrafted 6-foot-9 power forward Maurice Ndour (9.6 points per game, 51.1 percent shooting, 4.8 rebounds) of Ohio University is unclear. The Senegal native, who played Japanese high school basketball, impressed with his energy and mid-range shot, but Fisher indicated his camp invite could come with another team that affords more opportunity.
“Maurice was solid, he brought energy and activity to our game,’’ Fisher said. “He showed ability to shoot fairly well and defend, block shots, rebound. He represented himself well. We may not be able to keep him. Our roster’s filling up pretty fast.’’

Would be a shame if we did not even invite him to camp.
