    Why not Larry Bird or Mark Price?

    10 pts and 11 rbs in 19 mins last night.

    Gonzaga is deep. Doubt he puts up huge numbers this year because the minutes aren't there (the team doesn't feature someone to try to push up that players stock) but you can see the skill.

    He knows how to rebound and post on bigger older men. Kid is tough and sounds like he might have dads shooting stroke though I havent seen him shoot yet just beast down low.

    He's listed as 6'11" and 230 lbs, but that seems generous. He's definitely bulked up a bit since being listed at 209 though. Kid remind me of a more physical Cody Zeller.

    He's going to be an interesting prospect to keep an eye on. To me, he just has that beast like hunger. Watch how hard he competes. That's what would separate him from guys like Zeller.

    So, is he going to stay all four years at Gonzaga or is this dude a one and done?

    I think he stays 2 years. If you make me pick between all 4 or 1 and done though then I lean the latter.

    Saw him play on Saturday, and he is definitely impressive. He can only go left at this point, but he does it incredibly well. Was hoping to see him with a bit of his dad's passing, but didn't see much of it. He's only like 19, so he has some time to develop. Would like to see him here for at least three years, which I think he needs.

    Turned 18 in May.

    Still wet behind the ears. But, as a true Freshman and coming off the bench, he's leading the Zags in scoring and rebounding. That's a top 10 Zags team.

    Maybe he'll top out at 7'0"

    Didn't realize he was barely 18.

    There's parts of his game he hasn't unleashed yet. I've heard he has a smooth stroke on his jumper, even from 3pt territory. He's scored pretty much all his buckets in the paint so far this year.

    Domantas is listed as a lottery pick in 2016 on the draft websites.

    You heard about him here, first.
