He gained 2lbs in 3 months.
Chris Bosh came in the league around the same weight and had a similar frame, Bosh has put on at most 15lbs since entering the league. Some dudes just can't gain weight.

in 15 years, Camby has only added 12 pounds to his frame.
You dont need that much more weight, but still.

yep just like Thomas Robinson and Withey stopped dude from grabbing 16 boards and 5 blocks in the title game
He's gonna get pushed around by damn near evand eryone. David fukking Lee is gonna bully him in the post.
He dominated that game on the defensive end..But Withey also held him to 1-10 shooting.
Withey is 235lbs, Robinson is 244lbs.
Kaman is 265lbs and Okafor is 255lbs.
Love is 240lbs and Pekovic is 290lbs
Bynum is 285lbs and Pau is 250lbs
Big Al is 290lbs and Millsap is 255lbs
Gasol is 265lbs and Zach is 260lbs
KG is 250lbs and Bass is 250lbs
Hibbert is 260lbs and West is 240lbs
Tyson is 240lbs and Amare is 260lbs
NBA frontcourts are considerably bigger and stronger than College ones, and it's not like he's got KG length either, KG without shoes is taller than Davis with shoes. Guys who you think are "skinny" in the NBA are all close to 240lbs, even Durant is 235lbs.
He will be good, but needs to put on some weight if he wants to play the 4, put it like this, Wade came into the season @ 230lbs.

Dude could easily play the Garnett role right now at his current weight...yall sleepin
I guarantee dude averages atleast 9 boards and 2.5 blocks next year
yall actin like dude is one of them pure athleticism cats, he is very skilled not only for his size but as a player in general...if them weak euro cats can come over and ball right away..so can he...

2.5 blocks a game would be good for 5th in the league if he did that this year.
The problem with Davis is that he hasn't been this size for that long. He still has to figure out how to catch up with the growth of his body.
As for KG, KG came in at a similar size, but the first 5 years of his career, KG was a small forward.

Davis motor can negate his lack of weight. I've seen Tyrus Thomas at 214 grab 14-15 rebounds due to just his motor. Noah isn't that big of a specimen either. Davis is more skilled than both of them.

Noah's got a 2 inch height advantage over him and struggled initially until he added more upper body strength

But who cares if Davis struggles early on. I'm sure the Hornets only care about him as a finished product

That's not my point. I'm saying that their frame did not
Stop them from grabbing rebounds and blocking shots.
One is 7 feet tall, the other is now a bench player, and Tyrus never pulled down more than 6rpg in a season, just having a few high rebounding games thrown in here and there doesn't mean much.
My point is, he has to gain weight if he wants to be the franchise player he's being pegged as.
