We have not had a tall foreigner in the league in a few years. He is 7'5, 360 pounds. He has spent the season playing with their d league team in Reno. He has averaged 72% from the field and 4 blocks a game. Should be interestingly see how he does. He is the first person with Indian descent to besieged to an NBA contract.

7'1, from France, playing for the Utah Jazz. Not tall enough?

Sounds like he is probably slow as hell. He'll get beat up and down the court in the NBA.

Yeah he has a weight issue that needs to be addressed and overall he's very raw but he'll make a good pylon if anything. Otherwise he was on the Kings summer league roster and played very brief minutes but they never signed him until now. Nice of the Kings to sign him though it will be good for both sides.

I watched him in college a few times at New Mexico St.. He's got a "little" brother that's 7'3 that plays on New Mexico St now, at least I think he still does.

Unless he's lost a ton of weight, he shouldn't play for more than 5 minutes at a time. It takes him a while to get up the court and he gets winded quickly. He can't jump at all but I guess you don't have to when you're that big. He's about as big of a rim protector as there's ever been though. You can't move him and his arms reach over the rim. He has no post moves on offense and as you can imagine he can't dribble.

I'm basing this off of what I saw in college. Maybe he's lost weight in the d-league and added to his game. From what I saw, I'd describe him as an extremely overweight poor man's Shawn Bradley.

His biggest issue is most definitely his conditioning. He's lost weight since playing in the D-league, but he's still a project. I've watched him in a few D-league games, and he's definitely an intimidating force.

I'm actually looking forward to seeing what he can bring to the game, and being able to use him in 2K should be fun.

I watched him at New Mexico State a couple times. He's big but can't run too much. Probably only get 10-15 minutes a game. But pretty cool to see.

That being said, I don't understand what a Dr. J card had to do with the topic OP?

I second this.

As a Kings fan, he can't be any worse than Ryan Hollins :)

Another Canadian in the NBA. Met him last year he's the cousin of one of my buddies. It's insane how big he and his brother are. We were playing poker in the basement and neither of them could walk upright.

That picture with cousins is crazy. That's a big dude.

I posted the wrong link. Big fingers and a Ipad can be frustrating some times. I fixed the link.

Jorge Gonzalez, part 2.
Does the Kings owner have a wrestling promotion to move Bhullar to when this one fails like part 1 did?
