I just became his 138th twitter follower. Oh, make that 137th. Somebody just unfollowed him.

Decoy Cady Lalanne twitter account. The real McCoy has 1,280.

It was a joke.

Seems to be about as good as one can expect late in the second round. Moves fluidly and is an elite rebounder according to the numbers. If he can knock down those jumpers consistently he'll be a fine Ayers/Bonner replacement. It looks like he can actually catch the ball, so there's that.

I hate this pick on initial review. I've been wrong before but ugh.

I like that he can use that wingspan to create the space to catch the ball. That's a tremendous advantage when trying to post up. Seems like an below-the rim big, though. Similar to Splitter in that regard. Doesn't have Tiago's footwork or BBIQ in the post (yet), but his length and low center of gravity give him angles to get shots off that Tiago just doesn't seem to have.

I actually watched UMass quite a bit. LaLanne is very athletic, a good defender, good around the rim, and can shoot from the outside. I heard he blew the Spurs away at a workout earlier this week too.

And he's also a good kid, soft-spoken, and very mature playing all 4 years in College and being 23. He's a hard worker too -- he just created a twitter account tonight -- so you know where his priorities lie. At #55 you couldn't have picked a better player IMO.

A project, could be a late bloomer, has great length with 7'5" wing span. Should be comfortable speaking french with the other 2 french players.

He's Haitian. Does he even know French?

It's also the official language over there Chino. I assume he knows it.

[look_at_g_shred]

I like what I've seen from those videos tbh... Great footwork!!!

[Chinook]

It's one of the official languages, and possibly not his family one. Listening to his accent, I'd say it's very possible he only knows Creole and English.

[MaNu4Tres]

Already like him more than Ayres.

Interested to see how he does in SL.

Sounds like a name in a film noir.

Yeah, but a name the feme fatale would have

[Darius Bieber]

Probably an Austin Spur for life tbh

[Raven]

interesting pick.

[K...]

There's always a hustle big spot on the team. I'd say the odds he's signed for something other than a ten day contract is 33%

Basically he can play over seas,or he can go to austin with or without a contract.

I'd say the odds are: no contract, contract, over seas

So true...

if he's lucky

[kobyz]

Needed to fill that hole at the four spot, Spurs lineup in two years:
Anderson
Bartrens
JLC
Lalane
Milunitov


Exciting!

[spurraider21]
