This guy is a 7 footer with a seven foot 3 inch wingspan. His bio says he was a national ranked shot blocker in the NCAA. Haven't heard of this guy. The Suns supposedly had him in for a look prior to the draft. Anyone seen this guy play?

I haven't seen him play, but the chances of an undrafted NCAA seven-footer making any sort of impact in the NBA are very remote.

Last I heard, this guy was playing for a club in europe. Mabetex Prishtina in Kosova. My cousin was telling me that he's tearing it up over there, but the competition isnt exactly top notch

doubtfull that he'll make the team, along with most summer leaguers.

How many players do NBA teams usually carry? 12? 13?

The chances are remote, but stranger things have happened. If I remember correctly Brad Miller was undrafted.

Counting the "injured" players, I think the Suns have carried 14 guys in the past. 12 on the squad, and 2 guys usually with "back spasms."

There's been a recent rise in the guys making it from the CBA and summer leagues into the NBA. Usually the summer league guys have been playing in Europe or elsewhere and are looking to try and land an NBA spot.
