Agreed, but given how full our "healthy" front court is, he's a nice insurance policy if Jacob can't come back and we have some type of injury there.

Ideal world is that he doesn't have to play this year and gets stronger, acclimated to the system and improves skills to enable him to contribute on the 21/22 team as a 4 or a 5.

Happy with this add at this stage of the game.

I've never seen a highlight film with so many misses. He needs a good film editor. That being said, he does run the floor well.

Cant go wrong with a Lithuanian

Nice project and insurance policy, hopefully he can develop similar to Krampelj without the injuries.

Kind of my thinking, although, to me he looks more like a 3/4 to me, even in our system. Who knows where he is now, he could have come a long way recently. He has the look of a player who has a lot of upside and growth still ahead.

Solidifies the frontcourt with 4 options now. Need to find a depth guard that can play next year now. 6'9 kid with really good length. It's nice to see how easy those dunks are with 2 hands.

Everything I’ve seen says he is a shooting guard.
