Seton Hill University men's coach Tony Morocco expects center Ales Chan to attend an individual workout, possibly on campus, for the NBA Phoenix Suns "in the coming weeks." The 7-foot-2 center averaged 17 points and 10 rebounds this season for Seton Hill.

Never heard of this guy. Transferred from West Virginia to NAIA Seton Hill.

Seton Hill University (Pa.) might produce one of the more interesting stories in this year's NBA draft. The school is only about 15 percent male, but it started a men's basketball program last year under Tony Morocco, who landed Ales Chan, a 7-1 Czech center, who averaged 17.0 points and 10.4 rebounds for a team that went 18-8 in its first NAIA season. Chan is a 270-pound senior whose athleticism and versatility were showcased in Morocco's wide-open offense. Morocco says Chan can shoot from the perimeter, has a terrific hook shot and is a good passer for a big man. He is fluent in five languages and scored a 720 on the math portion of his SATs. "He is a well-rounded kid," Morocco says. "Everything he does is very efficient. He works hard, and he is easy to coach. He is flying under the radar right now." That might not last long--the Suns and Bulls have shown interest in Chan. . . .

Sounds like a possible UFA for summer league more than anything.

Unless they're thinking of trading down....

If he was putting up 17 and 10 for Seton Hall, then maybe.

Even if the Suns trade down, this guy would be competing against players like Samardziski and David Harrison...for some reason, I don't see it.

summer league invite.

Last season the Suns didn't have a second rounder either. I guess the last one was Alton Ford like 3 years ago.
But we still worked out Marquis Daniels and others.

I agree he sounds like a summer invite. Most NAIA teams would have trouble against the elite HS teams, so I doubt he is well scouted.
