At 6-9 or 6-10, sets with him and OMOG in the game at once are much more realistic. Plus, we will also have at the same time 6'11 Waverly Austin. That should be very intresting. I don't know...having Omog and Bunu on the floor at the same time will hurt the offense since neither can shoot outside the paint. Yes it will be interesting. How is JB's shot? Is it that bad? His body type looks more like a Ibaka type and could learn to play a little bit of the 4 to get some more PT. He looks more long and athletic than OMOG's. I'm very curious to see a bit more film on him from this camp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please stay with the flow Triple B, there's plenty of times in the future when you and I can get into a silly off topic squabble. Everybody knows why USF had to offer Davis a D1 scholarship. This isn't a silly off topic squabble at all. It was made on-topic with the talking about the wasting of a scholarship on Davis. It could be Egbunu's contribution to the program that determines whether Davis' scholarship was warranted or not ... A good debate for you to start is will Egbunu move up to 5-star status while committed to USF? I would be stunned .... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of the more than 100 players`at this elite camp, Clark Francis of Hoop Scoop now has Egbunu ranked #12 overall and #3 center. If that holds up, he certainly would be in the discussion.

Ndiaye, who is originally from Senegal, is listed at 7-5 (he said he is 7-4). And Ndiaye towered almost comically over Egbunu, another African (Nigeria) by way of New York and now Georgia, who is already committed to the University of South Florida. If Egbunu is truly a 7-footer, then Ndiaye might be closer to 7-7. My guess: Egbunu is closer to 6-9ish while Ndiaye is, at least, every bit of his claimed 7-4. Egbunu did do a pretty good job of side-fronting the big, big fella. But a teammate was able to arch one pass over the top of Egbunu on the left block and into Ndiaye’s hands and, upon the catch, turned along the baseline and reversed dunk with two big, big hands – hanging onto the rim and drawing a technical for effect, much to the delight, seemingly, of everyone watch from on the floor and in the stands. http://coachgeorgeraveling.com/nbpa-top-100-camp-day-3/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he ends up being a 4 star player and gets honorable mention for the McDonalds All American game. If Egbunu was really 7ft tall he would be ranked higher as a center. If he had a face the basket game then he could be labeled a PF which would place him near the top the class of 2013.

The 6-foot-9 center runs the floor very well, can block shots, and then also is a capable player with his back to the basket. Add in that he has good hands and is a well above average athlete, and Egbunu was very impressive in a morning game capping off what was an excellent camp for him.

He showed excellent versatility for a big man as he finished with some nice post moves that were explosive and athletic while also running the floor and finishing well in transition with a number of powerful dunks. One of the true sleepers in the 2013 class nationally, Egbunu was impressive to the tune of 8.2 PPG and 5 RPG. http://www.ny2lasports.com/article_one.aspx?articleid=958 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
