The guy reminds me of Yao Ming and is a perfect 2 nd center to go along w Mitch. We could use a high %. Offensive player at times as is

Nope. Hard Pass. He's a statue with no outside shot who will not be able to rotate fast enough on D. His offense around the rim is not particularly agile - relying mostly on height/bulk differential. On defense he benefits from no defensive 3 second rule and he rarely gets called for offensive 3 seconds even though he often plants himself in the lane. He will likely be an all american candidate who will be limited as a pro.

Why would you burn a 1st on him? You can get him in the 2nd round or maybe even as an undrafted FA.

You see all of the big leads we give up? Having a c like This off the bench can change game tempo and
Get high % shots. Dickinson from Michigan is also a possibility

LOL at this being a solution for losing big leads... I love Briggs, you so fun. Like all we needed was Hasheem Thabeet for 50 wins

Its early!

If you want a big man who can make a difference, Daron Holmes from Dayton. He’s a true sophomore putting up Obi Toppin numbers when he was there, plus he’s a rim protector. Extremely underrated.

This guy looks nothing like Ming, except he is big and has asian facial similarities?
Edey vs. Penn and we all that?
Yao had an outside touch.
Edey vs. NBA competition might not look so dominant.

Colby Jones and Jordan Hawkins are two guys in our range who could be nice role playing wings in the league.

I believe Taco Falls (right now) could put up similar numbers to Zach Edey, if he was in the same position. But in the NBA, Taco Falls cannot stick on an NBA team. Is Zach more like Taco Falls than Yao Ming?

This guy is going to have some monster battles with Tacko Fall in the Chinese League.
