    The technical term for his condition is a "Tank for a higher draft pick" tumor.

    The timing is bad for the Jazz but I actually don’t think this is the case. At least not from what I’m reading. We will see.

    As for the Vando - Sochan comp. Kid is a much better passer than Vando, he's also more athletic. Other than that, they're pretty similar players.

    Yeah, if he has what they're saying, it's legit. It sounds bad, and very rare. .0000018% possibility of happening. Yikes.

    maybe vertically a better athlete--he's a better finisher at the rim, i think. but in terms of perimeter speed and agility, i probably give the nod to vando.

    yeah, i don't think it's fake. i would definitely have questions about whether memphis knew about this, though.

    as for severity, i have no idea. it just sounds like something that has a likelihood of recurrence/complications.

    I remember when he stripped Harden 2 or 3 posessions in a row, kid was like a glue.
    That being said, i don't want either him or Vando LOL. No shot = no love from me.
