[QUOTE="PlayAZ, post: 1499258, member: 625229"] NBA does draft on potential, but the league has went the way of athletic, mobile, big men....Kofi will have his spot, not sure he is the atypical athletic big drafted these days...at least not high in draft. Jaxson Hayes was the first athletic Big last year. Ayton, Bagley, Bamba, Jackson were early year before...all more lean and athletic overall. Isaac, Markannen were up there in 2017... Point is athletic bigs are in demand, Kofi is a different athletic big than what is going high based on potential, he will get there, it will take time. Selfishly I am glad that it will. 3 years imo. He is very much like Shaq as far as size, he is a long way away from Shaq's ability at this age. Shaq in high school was scary and then in college. Kofi has that ability, he has to achieve it and he is going to. Make him watch LSU highlights from back in the day. [/QUOTE]
