7'5'' High School player in California

    Pretty incredible story. It's amazing to see how much bigger he is than the kids he's playing against. I'd imagine if he develops a bit more we'll hear more about him in a few years.

    Wow - get him in the paint and you got two every time. How on earth would you defend that?
    We couldn't even stop the Redskin's Taylor at 6'5" last night!

    Wasn't there a Mactar N'diaye and a Mamadou N'Diaye that played big time college basketball recently?

    N'diaye must be a very common last name.

    Jeez. Barring injuries he'll be a star.

    Very common name.

    I was reading in ESPN The Magazine about another kid in India who is 7'5 and only 16 years old. A few years back he entered a basketball academy they have opened there. Basketball's continued expansion overseas is going to expose the NBA to new channels of talent.
