I noticed looking at the game flow, that there were four stints during the game where Djeng was the lone big on the court for OKC. Quite interesting. Overall, those minutes were net positive. It’s good to see; and may be something to see more of in the future. He IS 6’11" from what I understand.
I feel like Djeng was Presti’s next swing at a hot shooting 7 foot wing with athleticism, that can play all three frontcourt positions. The first being Poku, who was not extended.
What makes Dieng special is 6’11 at 3, not under size at 5. I hope they will let him play in his natural position asap.
