14 points in the 1st half - that's gotta be his career high, right?

That alley oop he caught from Lacey near the end showed what a good athlete he is.

For some reason the first time I heard him talk I was surprised. I expected some FOB sounding accent, but he just sounds like a regular dude.

I would love if he could develop a face-up game. He has the quickness, strength, and athleticism to get there.

Dude needs to spend all offseason in the gym shooting jumpers and working on finishing around the rim. He could end up being who CJ Leslie should have been.

He has next level athleticism. If he improves his shooting/creating ability and can learn to defend without fouling out midway through the second half, our team stock will skyrocket next year. His stats and our win percentage will take a nice bump up and it's entirely possible he could be a draft pick after next season. Really excited about his potential.

I like him a lot. Still raw, but he's shown progression this year. We desperately need a big man with some post game on offense. Hopefully he'll continue to progress and be a force

I definitely agree. He's got awesome potential. I like his athleticism and raw passion for the game. But... as long as his free throw shooting percentage is so bad, there is no reason for the opposing team not to send him to the line on every possession (other than them not wanting to foul out).

I don't understand why he wouldn't be a draft pick this year, since nba is all about potential. I don't really follow it though. Is it a deep draft?

He's got a face up game already and just needs to continue to polish that. If teams want to foul him on jump shots or drives, all the better. The FT shooting will come with reps, he doesn't have a weird stroke or anything and can already hit the FT line jumper.

He got wtf pwnt by the refs last night while still dominating. For how much he banged around in the paint scoring and getting boards, he shouldve been sent to the line a lot more. Mean time the refs are like "oh shit, I cant tell if he touched ochefu but the #1 is losing so lets try to make the game more interesting. FOUL"

Abu has really progressed this season. His FT shooting has been 10x better, his confidence is through the roof, and his work on the boards has been awesome the past month or so. Guy has All ACC potential in a couple years. He will be like Montrezel Harrell with a better offensive game especially if he can develop a jump shot.

Before KW got in, Abu was our only big attacking the rim early. He took a couple ill-advised shots, but he's come a long way from early in the year. FTs an face up game improved a lot. He's got a ton of potential.

Developed a nice ability to drive to the basket and use a good spin move. Free throw shooting improved. Needs to spend a lot of time on his jumper in the offseason and he could be a real impact player next year.
