Welcome James Nnaji?!!

[TheStringer]

Until He personally announces his commitment to Mason...this is just a rumor...but if he ends up committing..yeah. Mason is in the conversation.. dude was the 31st pick in the 2023 NBA draft...

Defensively.. he is already Olajuwan....


Look at how quickly he recover from hedging to block shots...

Jamie Shaw has been wrong many times.

I was just trying to find this quote. Hope going back on his stance pays off big time.

 

[Ben Chwarmer]

I thought the roster is was full?

 

[Ben Chwarmer]

IMO he's a project.

I agree, But Skinn has proven to develop bigs. Every year he makes a no name big something special.

Heck last year he turned a backup lower conference player into 2nd team all conference played.

James Nnaji booed in collegiate debut at Baylor, 2 years after being selected in 2023 NBA Draft

The most controversial player in college basketball got his first minutes at Baylor on Saturday.

James Nnaji highlights:

 

[gmutom]

Good depth to have when Kanga picks up 2 fouls in the first five minutes of a game.

 

[JPgmuswim]

Hopefully he’s already on campus working with Coach Curran.

 

[NewPatriot]

He is going to be the starting center.

You don't get a center with 2 years of international professional experience with Barcelona, one spot away from being a first round pick and played summer league for the Knicks last year unless he is promised starters minutes.

He may be raw on the offensive end but his defensive instincts are elite..Mason has never had a shot blocker and defensive presence this intimidating.

 

[InterVarsity]

Reminds me of Shevon Thompson.

Certainly wouldn’t rule this out at this point.

Safe to say we (he) is getting dragged all over social media but I like this pickup. Will be a project but great depth and a true C.

[jkh1978]

Funny how my opinion has changed about drafted players who played years in Europe now in the ncaa.

 

[jessej]

I thought the roster was full?

before this signing
16 on roster

14 scholarship players
2 walk-ons grandfathered in when the NCAA set the 15 player limit

I would hold everyone's horses about what role Nnaji will have. This is clearly Tony using the Nigeria connections here, but from when I first heard about this a few weeks ago, he's kinda here as a magic box. He is not costing much money to my understanding and if he turns out, then we have a seven footer giving us 15 minutes a game. If he doesn't, ah well, it was worth a bet. At the minimum, it gives us another true out and out center.
