This is just the beginning.

GMs are in a tough spot. They have to see these body types that scream injury prone, but they can’t pass because if they do they will get fired. For example, Zion.

Who knows what truly caused it, but given his body type… they probably need to treat him like Chet where he’s not the anchor of the defense, nor responsible for covering every single flaw of his teammates on both ends. I figure that’s a lot of unnecessary wear, tear and mileage every game.

Now, easier said than done to find a “Hartenstein”and a buncha high IQ two-way guards

The history of these super tall dudes in the NBA is not kind. Yao. Sampson. Oden. Walton. There are a lot of em.

If Wemby ever realizes his potential it'll be some lightning in a bottle year like '77 Walton. These guys do not last long.

Now yes, this particular injury was caused by Podz, but don't miss the pattern. There is always a pattern of injury with these guys.

Personally, I think he has a ceiling of 5 elite years. This is not gonna be a guy who is great for 10+. 5-6 years is the limit.

He's certainly a freak and fun to watch, but its Y3 and the pattern is already there....

Draymond didn't actually do anything. It was all that other dude.

Silver needs to implement automatic 10 game suspension for stuff like this. It's like he karate swept Wembys leg

Less than a second before Podz Dove at Wemby legs, Draymond was doing his usual stupid groin kick in Wemby's direction.

Damn, I'm not gonna be a "I told you so" bytch.

But, the only thing stopping this kid from taking over his is weird body type.

I hope he comes back killin'.
