Heat sound like they will not keep or let him go. Not sure his contract status.

He seemed to dominate the defensive paint in the summer league. He was blocking shots from everywhere against us. He seemed very physical.

He averaged 14.5 points per game and 9.9 rebounds and 3.5 blocks in 30 minutes per game in the d-league last year.

I think we will need another big man. I don't see any stretch 4's available like Lindsey said he wants.

I think him and Gobert off the bench would be nice. I know we would struggle offensively with those 2 but it would challenge each other. I don't think Biedrins cares anymore.

Only 25 by the way.

Can you youtube him to see highlights if you didn't watch him during the summer league.
 
I know nothing about him, but don't forget that Marvin can play stretch 4. Yes, he's injured, but he's making 9 mil, might as well use him, and it's not like he's Memo with a full reconstruction, it was just a repair, I think he comes back on schedule.

As for this guy, sure, though he would spell the doom of that other... guy.... (what's his name?)
 
Don't see a need for him. By stretch 4, Lindsey is talking Olynyk type. Since there is no one like that available, our big man rotation is pretty full with: Kanter, Favors, Gobert, Marvin, Evans and Beidrins.
 
Defensive monster. No offense.
Amazing the blocks he gets for his size.

He'd be alright, but nothing game-changing.
 
The guy is a beast but I'm not sure there is room at the Inn for him. When Evans was drafted that was one of the games the Jazz pointed to was that he outplayed Jarvis in a college game.
