First Indian Player to Play in the NBA

I always thought Dhalism would make a good NBA player.

I've noticed some more Indian faces in the college ranks too. SLCC had one few years ago, Sai Tummala, who is at Arizona State now. But he's America. I don't think there has been an actual Indian born player in the NCAA even yet.

I have never seen such a slow player for a long time. I love his touch despite the size he has, but he just does not leap at all and both running straights and turn arounds are considerably slow. This might affect him too much in an arena like NBA where pace and speed is pretty much one of the most important things for players to keep up with the game and find themselves some decent PT.
He is slow, very slow but I think it's also a visual result of his size. He actually doesn't look that slow in in-game videos.

Btw, apparently he also has an 18 year old 7'3" brother playing hoops too.

Sim looks clearly like the best of the two. I don't understand their body types though. If either one of them would the gym hardcore and muscled up, it would probably be shocking how good they actually could be.
 
He has all of a 3 cm vertical.

He also has Eaton-itis...the need to hold the ball below waste level to lumber that extra step to the hoop.
