Watching Wemby, I started googling to see who the most recent physical comparable would be.
Bamba is 7’0 with a 7’10" .
Drafted 6th and has done jack shit in 5 seasons. Still just 25 years old but a clear bust.
Did this freak of nature just not have any interest in basketball? Any major injuries? Does seem so. WTF happened to him?
Imagine getting a genetic lottery ticket of being 7’ with a 7’10" wingspan and just decide youy’ll quiet quit your way through your NBA career.
Basically think of Wemby but take away -10 to all his stats and that’s Bamba. Not fast enough not tall enough to negate it not smart enough to read the floor not strong enough to play as a true 5 not hard working enough to improve on any of those negatives and lastly not healthy enough. A shame because he will have random flashes showing the possibilities but they’re few and far between. Basically what you see Wemby do in 20min takes Bamba half a season to do.
