Deserves own thread - Omer Yurtseven

Lol it's a Turkish word.

Yurt's were Turkic/Mongolian tents that were made from mainly animal pelts. Turks came to Anatolia by the grand immigration from Asian steps. But some stayed. Yurt is one of the most symbolic things in the antic Shamanist Turkic culture.

It's pronounced "yoort" not "yört" or like "yert". u is pronounced like the double o in "cool".

No man. It's actually pronounced yoh-ghurt. Pretty sure you are talking about something else. This is murrica. Lol.
 
You can't play him much when your only goal is to win Euroleague and you have Vesely-Udoh. Fener is not just a good team, they are arguably the best team in Europe. I'm a Galatasaray fan.

It's difficult to give examples on this situation from the NBA. Way different structures,systems and mindsets.
Players ahead of Omer Faruk are not good players. The two are elite players for European Basketball. That's like playing Myles Turner ahead of Marc Gasol.

You can give him more minutes as the following seasons come.

He's probably going to get about 5x the number of minutes in competitive basketball by going to college rather than stay in Europe. For developmental purposes, that's a no-brainer move.
 
I'm bummed he didn't come to Utah, but it's tough to turn down cash. I'll never blame someone for taking the money.

Hey Phillip Rivers and Russell Wilson got cash to burn so why not lure a young Turkish fella to Raleigh.
