What do you think he could've become had he not had injuries? I think he could of become an extremely versatile 7 foot forward for us. An all star calabier player. He was drafted 8th. He was 7 feet tall with better perimiter and less post skills than KG. I think he could've become a KG-type player. Here's what I think he'd be averaging right now without the injuries that forced him to retire:41 mpg21.3 ppg9.7 rpg5.2 apg1.4 spg1.8 bpg49% fg39% 3fgI know you might be thinking I'm crazy. But think about it. He had sooo much potential. It makes me shiver everytime I think about how good he could've been.
It's literally impossible to know what he could have been. He never competed in college or in the NBA so nobody can really give you an accurate idea.

But he never played 100%.Obviously we will never know. But I want to know what people think he could've become.
Ahh man. I'm having another attack thinking how good he could've been. If only...(please don't respond to this post)

But I sometimes just have shiver attacks thinking about it. The guy was kinda like Kevin Durant before Kevin Durant.
This guy had a lot of potential. It's always sad to hear about guys who's caeers are pretty much ruined because of injuries. Too bad we will never know how he might've done in the NBA.
I didn't know much about the guy, but it's really sad to hear that he had to retire at such a young age.

And he never was the same. He had one season of 70 games but otherwise he's pretty much never played. Last year he retired.
Yeah, he would've been great.He still has the record for most points in the High School All-Star Game.
You could have least spelled his name right. And I'm not even going to comment on your stupid averages you mapped out for him.
