Center? Check
Decent size and speed? Check
Play driver? Check

What more do you want from this guy? I’m telling you right now, if he was 6’2/3 then he’d be drafted in the top 10. People should be happy he went to 18. I was afraid the Isles would’ve picked him at 16/17 with their back- to-back picks.

This is the only thing I can think of when people become obsessed with player sizes is the Moneyball scene where they’re “talking good body nonsense, like we’re buying men’s jeans, looking for Fabio …”
