He posted about Bismak Biyombo as a possible draft target (Memphis pick).  The info provided suggested a H Whiteside type prospect that would weigh in around 210 lbs, but be a shot blocking 5 if things worked out.  I dismissed the idea of a 210 lbs 5 pretty quickly.  I have no idea how many years it will be before this kid is actually ready to play or if he can, but his Nike Hoop Summit measurements came out and he's not exactly 210 lbs.  The kid has an NBA body.  I'll trust Ronzone on where or not he's worth a pick, but for reference Darko's draft measurements were 7'5'' wing span and 9'3.5'' standing reach at 250 lbs and 8% body fat.  Last year Favors measurements were 7'4'' wing span and 9'2'' standing reach at 245 lbs and 6.5% body fat.  Something to think about.  I have no idea how quick he is, how high he can jump and if he can actually play, but was quite surprised by his increase in weight with the low body fat over the last year.
