While he led the nation in shot-blocking, his lack of quickness and
offensive
skills will relegate him to the late second round.  Alexander Koul would
be a better
choice as a project center.  If I were doing the drafting, I'd take
either Brad
Miller from Purdue, Mirsad Turkcan from Turkey, or a point guard that
could be 
developed.
