That dude looks real skinny. I'm not impressed at first glance. I could be wrong though. There is a possibility that a hall of fame college basketball coach know more than me. We shall see.

According to AI in order to win a title:
You usually need at least 3 of these 5 things:
1. Elite guard play. [check]
2. NBA-level wing talent. [check]
3. Rim protection [???]
4. Defensive rebounding [???]
5. Half-court offense that can survive cold shooting nights [???]
Defense rebounding and rim protection shouldn’t be that hard to buy.

This is where you're wrong. Any players that can can provide both at a top level are rare. Their agents have realized this. To get one you need a lot of money and be willing to play shady games.
A whole lot of smoke the center we lost to Louisville had a whole group behind him demanding "kickbacks" for everyone.

He also said he didn't want to be "the guy" year 1.

I will never understand why people don’t always hire the best for their needs when they can afford to. If you have a heart problem, do you go to the best cardiologist or the one who’s not the best but you were buddies in high school with?(I realize a lot of people make decisions based on emotion, etc. but that is literally bad business decision-making and I get so sick of these younger athletes saying “it was a business decision, getting a huge payday and then having financial issues only a few years later)

What in the name of Carter Ashton Jenkins is going on around here?

He would have probably been much less 'the guy' at Arkansas than at Louisville, so that argument doesn't hold much water.

Opposite, he's coming off the bench at Louisville. We wanted him to be the starting 5 and fix all the no center problems all over the media. He didn't want that, his camps own words. They know he isn't ready for that year 1.

So... he wants to sit back and draw that paycheck instead of earning it on the floor?
Yeah, he probably needs a year of development, but that's a curious thought process for a player.

Arkansas fans: ‘We need a man at the 5, a guy that can get tough rebounds & score’
Also Arkansas fans: ‘Dang we missed out on a 17yo 5, we’re doomed.’

Apparently his measurable were not great.
Hearing from other boards they feel good about him coming back, Richmond for sure and our play for a 5 is Micah.
Big if on the waiver but you get the 3 above, we’re feeling pretty good all things considered.
