He has a 7 foot wingspan. He rebounds. I am not convinced you can teach rebounding. Sure you can teach techniques, which can help alot. But this guy REBOUNDS. Shots that don't go in end up in his hands. HE OUTREBOUNDED LAMARCUS ALDRIDGE.

I believe we are talking about a Bonzi Wells / Ruben Patterson type. A steal at #35.

Of note - 14 double-doubles last season. In his last 13 games, he scored in double figures in every game AND had 4 or more assists 8 times.

He slipped because he doesn't fit the mold. The guy is a player.
rich mans Reggie Evans anyone?
