I agree, love K'Jei. His shooting, both from the field & line, has been very consistent. IF Danny sticks around next year, plus with the other pg coming in, minutes could be hard to split. Franks got his kid coming in at SG

^ He's averaging 15 points and 9 boards for his JuCo team. He's 50% from the field, 40% from 3 and 75% from the line. He played 1 year at Lamar and then did his 2 or 3 year mission for the Mormon Church. He's 23, so if we get him, we won't hear about an 18-year-old having to play against 22-year-olds. I like the 6'6 size for a shooting guard.

All due respect, and I mean that from the bottom of my heart, I'm gonna pass.

He was on a mission so I think that is an exception.

Can we start posting the context of the post and not just links?

Let's keep in mind that this is just an offer. No idea what our chances are of landing him, but I'll take a 6'6 kid who shoots 40% from 3. Even against better competition he should hit 35%. Shooters can shoot and non-shooters cannot. Yes I'm referring to a certain PG who has never been able to shoot.

Not sure what that means, it opens up just fine.

If you're not logged in it brings you to an Age Restricted screen where you see nothing other than a directive to log in. That's what happens when I click the link, at least.
