Rayvonte Rice: Welcome home

Stepping onto a scale last week, Rice checked in at 247 pounds, making him the thickest player on a roster that hasn't fared well against physical opposition.

"You would think a guy his size -- as much as he attacks the rim and as big as he is -- he would get a bunch of charges and be out of control," says assistant Paris Parham, who serves as Rice's position coach. "But he's in there like a ballerina most of the time. It doesn't look awkward for a guy his size. He makes it look easy, so to speak."

Nice to see Groce go 2-0 against Buzz Williams for recruits. (Nunn & Rice). Buzz might have landed Chew, but Parham has had an amazing effect on recruiting in such a short time.

Is the nickname "Hoss" taken, or Sir Rice paying vintage to Sir Charles Barkley.

Me loving some Rice and his attitude and props to his mum for keeping him grounded.
