I would imagine that whatever team drafts him will leave him on the injured list all next season. That way he can fully rehab his ACL injury and build up his body at the same time. That way, whatever team gets him will still suck next year, putting themselves in a position to get a high pick in 2014, which will have the best draft class since '03.

do you all realize this dude has been injured? I.e. he hasn't been able to work out at all? He has the frame to put on much more muscle

Now who else wanna fukk with Hollywood Court?
Exactly. How big was Dwight Howard when he came in the league? Dude will get his body together and be a beast in the paint.

Dwight was 240lbs at 18, he clearly had the frame to stack on weight and had NBA size.


Big men that come into the league as skinny as Nerlens rarely go beyond 235lbs, they weigh so little for a reason. Brandan Wright came into the league at 200lbs, he's around 220lbs now, Austin Daye was 192lbs, he's 200lbs today.

He hasnt been able to run around either which probably means hes gained some weight the past few months :scusthov:
not necessarily though, he might be eating less because he doesn't need as many calories now. I can't remember what he weighed coming into college, but he doesn't play like he is skinny. Davis was getting pushed around the first few months in college, Nerlens didn't get pushed around as much but he did have to figure out how to play defense in the college game just like davis did.

I don't ever expect Nerlens to be howards size but he's not going to be some frail p*ssy either, Nerlens is an extremely hard worker and doesn't back down from anyone. It's not like there are many prolific centers in the league anymore.

Before College? A lot of these guys attend LeBron's skills academy which takes their height/weight, so type a players name and LeBron Skills Academy into google and if they went it'll come up. Noel was 201 there, and that was 2 years ago so it's fair to say he's a ectomorph, it might be really hard for him to gain weight.
