Any chance he can play the 4 alongside Jokic ? Probably not since the nuggets are terrible.

looks healthy to me. I hope teams feel stupid I was pumped we got him and have high hopes but it's such a strange situation looking back. I wanna say there were reports of personality issues along with the health concerns. He's what like 7'2 and 208 pounds so maybe teams just never saw him staying healthy? I get guys fall all the time. We saw it with MPJ. 2nd round tho? It's not like he's was just a highly ranked HS prospect who never played in college/lived up the hype etc. He balled out in his short stint as a freshmen in college. Averaged 21/10 with 2.7 BPG on 56/52/75 shooting splits. His movement is so freakish at his size. Insane length. Potential shooting ability and great touch. He basically has no position defensively but it's 2019 and there's teams would absolutely sacrifice defensively to offense big time. He'll be able to roam around and alter a ton of shots so he does have some defensive potential even if you won't be able to rely on any 1 vs 1 defense. There had to be some stuff getting spread/stuff behind the scenes going on that is hopefully all bullshit. The concerns pre-draft were that his injury report wasn't pretty and a lot of teams had concerns about how serious he took basketball and whether he just wanted to be famous since he took pictures on instagram with famous people and hangs out with Shaq. I loved his quotes at media day about how he wanted to learn from Jokic on how to be a better passer. Seemed like a really good kid who is misunderstood simply because he's shy.

There’s a lot of awful people who hated manute. I honestly think it was people who were enemies of manute that were disseminating negative info about Bol Bol, just to take pleasure in him failing. We’re the beneficiaries though and he’s going to love playing for us - all works out.
Still can’t believe that the teams at picks 25 and beyond didn’t take him (or anyone past pick 5, really).

Probably not since the nuggets are terrible. this Is that a yes or a no? I think it depends on matchups, also with Bol and Jokic on the floor and run some zone tok. You Euro, you know about the zone. Wouldn't work on teams like Rockets who can knock down 3s. The second lineup Malone has been using is all length. Insert Bol for Plumdog and run Bol Grrant Juancho MPJ Morris

Transferred back to Denver. Smart plan. Now he got some time in gleagu e now bring him up to practice against the NBA guys and then I expect he will be sent back down to gleague. Remember he has a certain amount of time to be with the team. Maybe he knocks the socks off and stays up here but I expect a transfer back in couple weeks.

21/6/5 blocks for Bol tonight on 8-11 from the field, 3-5 from 3.
I cannot wait until I get to watch this kid instead of Mason Plumlee. Just needs to bulk up.

Our team’s future upside doesn’t seem to just rest on the shoulders of MPJ. Appears Bol Bol could be transformative as long as his body holds up.
What a steal.
