Kenny has a brother? He's had two 41 point games this year?

Looks like he's playing St Margaret Mary's

I particularly like having two Centers with completely different styles for our opponents to have to adjust to.

If that is an actual quote I love him even more now!

He's also blocked shots of the other teams' big a couple of times. For example, his block against 7'1" Koloko during the Shockers' rally in the second half against Zona. I would dare to call it big time, and it was done with perfect timing, just like the Big Fundamental back in the day.

He’s already the best post player we’ve had as a freshman in 20+ years. Sky is the limit.

I think you can extend that to So posts in the last 20+ years.

I think he is going to be very good. I am pleasantly surprised by his production. The only caution I have is he has yet to be really scouted. Hopefully he will be flexible enough to adjust as other teams become more familiar with his tendencies.

For a guy who was used mainly on the perimeter at Sunrise, and a guy who said dunking wasn't part of his game when he got to WSU, I think his inside game is developing at a rather astounding pace. He's developing aggressiveness around the basket. Add 20 pounds to that 6'111" frame before next year and he could be hard to stop around the basket.

If not “best” then most important. Maybe it’s not in his skillset but something tells me he’s a good enough passer and sees the floor well enough to be some facsimile of an offensive lynchpin a la the big lefty from Loyola.

As he gets more comfortable with his back to the basket, he is absolutely the type of player that we can center around and play inside out when we want to. The kid has very good vision and has shown to be a good passer. We've seen him use the little hook shot a few times when inside, but his current strength is stretching the D. But he's not going to be, nor is he now, one dimensional.

Having a good passing big can create so many good opportunities for everyone, including the big.

Kenny is incredible and has the potential to be the best player on the team in the future.
