He is also very raw and has injury concerns. Stress fractures in feet and ankles are big warning signs in 7 foot guys (LINK ). He will be really limited over the summer, which might put him behind starting the season. Just some factors to consider..

3 players in 35 years does not a trend make. Stress fractures are no more alarming than a blown ACL or torn rotator cuff.

Noel is raw and has legit injury concerns and people are calling him #1.

ETA - I don't expect any player in this draft to come in like gang busters.

I think both of those would give me pause as well. But there are many more than 3, that is just the guys they mention. Off the top of my head, you can add Oden, Pervis Ellison, Big Z and I think Bogut has had problems as well. Bad feet just seem to happen alot more in guys that are super tall.. Just throwing it out there..

Oden's issues were in his knees.

I would kill for a Big Z or Bogut in this draft...

I'm reading all of the combine stuff now. I didn't realize Zeller was hurt too. Is there a big man in this draft not injured?
