 Guerschon Yab, Approximately 6'7" 270 pounds, and movement wise he's an absolute freak of nature. Way Quicker than Larry Johnson ever was.

 It's actually mind blowing seeing this guy just float right buy smaller players like they are standing still.

 Chuck was a good 2" shorter than Yab, and Barkley was more Explosive, but that's the closest thing I can think of with that type of bodyweight, Quickness and Power combination.

 I think Yab cab blow by people much better than Marcus Smart. The kids first step is tremendous. He might be a gem.

I've searched the Internet for more information on him and there is little to be found.  It seems he has slipped under the radar.  The scouting reports are contradictory. They say he needs to lose weight and build muscle, but then you find pictures like this.



He was a boxer initially and then switched to basketball which is probably why scouts were slow to catch on to him.

I'm excited about him and Danny and CBS must be as well since they weren't willing to risk taking him at #23 when he wasn't expected to be taken until much later.

I think he looks fat because his shoulders are wide, he has a barrel chest, a wide waist, and a big behind.  It makes him look chubby, but it's all muscle.  With his 7'2" wingspan, explosiveness, quick feet, and jump shot, he could be quite a player.

He doesn't seem any more athletic than Brandon Bass. Freak is a big overstatement.

 I respectfully disagree watch here starting at 4:05 three highlights of him blowing buy people.

 Why you combine his Height, weight, quickness, speed, jumping ability, you have a man child Freak. This dude is different.https://youtu.be/_byJ_VztiSU

It's such a shame Sully never got his body in this kind of shape.  He could be such a better player.  If you watch his high school highlights, he used to be able to get off the ground.
