I wish Reed Sheppard were just a bit bigger. He's going to look small, like Peyton Pritchard.

Would be an interesting project to solve our center issue
Giving buckets to Sarr, Almanza and Lively in some of these highlights.
When KO isnt on the team the Jazz wont have a skilled center option. Yang is someone with some high level skill comparable to the current meta of skilled foreign centers (Jokic/Sengun/Embiid/Sabonis).What is this center issue that you speak of? I'm more than comfortable with Kessler going forward.
There's a 5th year senior on Auburn named Jaylin Williams who is having a great year. His stats and body type give off Grant Williams vibes. Stats wont jump off the page for anyone on Auburn because the leading MPG guy is only at 23, but they are a top team in the country.
Topic has had 3 stinkers with his new team. He may regret agreeing to the jump.
I said he has good hands. I don't think he is a rim protector so much as it seems a lot of his blocks are the strip on the way up type of block. Its good still... just not sure he's the vertical threat that will stop people from trying to score.View attachment 15704

Top is Kyle Filipowski and the bottom is Domantos Sabonis
@Handlogten's Heros he has stocks!
Also cant ignore ones plays in the ACC vs WCC...I said he has good hands. I don't think he is a rim protector so much as it seems a lot of his blocks are the strip on the way up type of block. Its good still... just not sure he's the vertical threat that will stop people from trying to score.
Calling him Sabonis with rim protection is a lot rich (like saying Taylor is JJJ with a better jumper). We can't ignore the first few columns of the comparison.
He may be a better prospect than I thought. Still need to see the 3 go in and see how he moves laterally in games to judge him.
