He might have the longest wingspan out of any nba prospect in history. He's a 6'9" center that's ranked the #16 played in his class. I hope he turns into a beast.

The 2 guys in recent years that have had wingspans close to him have had huge basketball success.

Im hoping Indiana can land this kind. Goes to the same HS as current IU (will be SO) Victor Oladipo. But I think he lands elsewhere.

Riek struggles to even get on the court for Miss St.

As a UConn fan, add Ater Majok to the overrated prospects as well. (Dude has a 7-7 wingspan but was a bust for the Huskies).

I remember reading about this kid and it might have also been mentioned on here during the HS season. 2012 7-5 Center Sim Bhullar from Canada signed with Xavier...

While Bhullar's hulking frame and ridiculous 8-foot-2 wingspan are certainly his most headline-grabbing attributes, he's certainly more than just a gimmick. He has terrific hands, deft passing ability and a knack for blocking shots, traits he shares with 7-foot-3 younger brother Tanveer.

Not sure if that has ever been verified, but I am sure soon enough it would be.
