Charles Bediako has potential

[cutewizard]

May we discuss him guys

Intriguing player , still developing

[spurraider21]

hhmmmmmmmmm

Lol

[MultiTroll]

Spurs' Charles Bediako: Inks one-year deal with Spurs - CBSSports.com

Feel free to put in OP.

Cliffs. 7'0" Center who played for Bama last season.

Blocks per minute good.

[John B]

A 21 yrs old, 7'0 with a 7'3 wingspan rim protector with nearly 2 blocks per game. He's a good project big, very athletic and can run the floor, but has no outside shot, and never shoots the three, rarely shoots the FT. He will be an Austin mainstay. If he can develop any kind of outside shot, then he has a chance.

I'll be curious to watch him in the Summer league.

[John B]

You need someone to lob pass to this guy. He likes to roll to the basket.

[Das Texan]

I assume this would be in a way to push Barlow and give him some compe ion for this two way roster spot? Cant see them keeping both.

[Maddog]

In twenty minutes per game 1.8 Blocks, 3.0 Foul
FT .355 (.612 first year)
I'm not seeing it....

But then again I never watch him play (well I did but don't remember him was watching Brandon Miller)

[John B]

I don't see him shoot anything but dunks

[Ed Helicopter Jones]

20 years ago he would have been a first round pick.

[Obstructed_View]

20 years ago he would have been a first round pick.

He moves like Mutombo, who was top 5.

Not even 20 years ago. Hasheem Thabeet went 2nd overall in 2009

[couchman]

Brick layer
It's hard to imagine him learning to shoot well enough to ever be an NBA player

He has a long way to go to be able to push Barlow. This looks more like a pure Toros signing to see if he can learn how to play basketball.

[TekXX]

Austin is gonna love him, all 20 people that show up to watch.

He doesn't learn how to shoot the 3. Rim running bigs who can switch and block shots a la Robert Williams are usually advanced stats monsters. Those are always valuable players who fly under the radar in the new NBA. He should learn how to shoot free throws though. If you can't hit them you really have no chance to make it in the league

I meant any perimeter shots besides dunking .

I’ve never really watched him play and I don’t know his perimeter defense, but he seems fast on his feet.

[JuneJive]

He's all defense, zero offense.

[Extra Stout]

On Spurstalk, every marginal Spurs pickup is a diamond in the rough.

[SpursFan86]

Reminds me a little of prime Shaq but with more potential. Hope we can afford to pay him on his 2nd contract.

Glad I’m not the only one feeling this way

[ambchang]

Shaq can't play in today's NBA without a 3 pt shot. He'd be like Boban, only without the FT shooting.

IDK why people keep saying he's athletic. He runs as if he has flat feet or bad knees or as of he has lower back problems. At his age, that's not a good sign at all.
