MO BAMBA (LAC)
UNDERDOG
NBA ROLE: TWO-WAY PIVOT
Mo Bamba has made tremendous strides as a two-way 5; legendary wingspan - tied for highest ever recorded at the combine (7'10); covers a lot of ground: able to make uncanny defensive plays from awkward spots, range stretches to the perimeter - blocks lots of Js; great help side threat, will likely send it back if not physically moved off spots; highly intelligent, coachable; furthest thing from a plodding 7-footer: Bamba's agile, quick off his feet; very slight, continuing to add weight; takes time on the box, needs to add hooks & a few go-to counters facing the rim; decent shooter* from deep, working on higher volume: straightaway, trail triples, corners, pick & pop; signed w/ Clippers (2023) - Bamba adds shooting & shot-blocking behind Ivica Zubac
*complete game-changer for him
