He's a real life create a player. 7 foot handles the ball strokes it and hops. I would foul this dude everytime he got the ball until I fouled out lol

That's insane. Revolutionary is correct. How do you stop a dude like that?

I didn't see the supposed travels in that video. Dude looks like a monster. He's the kind of guy who gets screwed by the draft eligibility rules. He is good enough to jump to the league.

Eta - Being an Aussie, can he skip college like Exum?

No Exum went to HS in Australia, he'll be in the same situation as Simmons. Hopefully he's at least able to classify up a year.

He's legit however playing against elite college talent is quite different than the guys you see him dunking on in the video.

He's probably one and done. Kentucky, Duke, Syracuse's of the world will land him.

Anyone know how Country Day got the kid? Has to be some strangeness to that story along with how they lost him.

A 7 footer that can get down court faster than the other bigs is deadly.
