Jalen & Amida in camp

[Yonick]

is this the week they participate in a big camp?

 

[tcf15]

Yep, they are both college counselors at adidas Nations from today through Monday.

 

[tcf15]

Tremont Waters is on USA 2017 Team Noah.
Hamidou Diallo and Wenyen Gabriel are on Team Africa.
Gorjak Gak is on Team Asia Pacific.

Is it a big boy camp?

 

[huskyniner]

Is Ug Lee a camp counselor?

Hamidou Diallo and Wenyen Gabriel are on Team Africa.
Gorjak Gak is on Team Asia Pacific.

Do you know what countries they are from or have roots in? I would assume maybe Mali for Diallo but I don't know about Gabriel

adams not on roster...?

 

[Stainmaster]

Pretty good group of players for Brimah to be listed with.

 

[James]

surprised adams is missing this event. would be really big for his stock. hoping to hear good things about AB because thats some serious comp. Also i'm pretty sure they do measurements there now (including wingpsan, they just don't give them out to the public.), so that 7' for AB is legit.

 

[aceboon]

they more than likely just took the heights the players are listed at in their college media guides and included them on that roster sheet

that might be true. But apparently they do measurements and don't release them according to a draftnet guy covering the event. Dont really get the logic

Big year coming for AB.

A guy's "stock" is pretty meaningless except for on draft night. Jalen is an exceptional talent. The world will see that soon enough.

Brimah looks like he bulked up a lot in that picture. Wow I'm loving what I see there. Look at those shoulders! He's far from rail thin now.

Does anyone know if the counselors' game will be televised?

Brimah is a force blocking shots, but has flubbed at least 5 finishes inside by bobbling passes or getting blocked/stripped.

Like what I’ve seen from Amida Brimah today. Blocked some shots, active out to the 3 pt line on D.

Don't really like boxscore bobbying but from this it doesn't seem like the best setting for bigs to do a lot of damage unless you got a perimeter game

I really look for AB to be improved this year and I'm sure he will be but I'm glad we have Miller for his putbacks and hands inside. Don't know if a player can improve hand strength with the ball by lifting.

Remember the exercise they used to have Thabeet do? They had him put his hands in a bucket of sand and open and close his hands squeezing the sand. I wonder if Brimah is doing something similar.
