No one works harder than that kid.

Please give him a chance, Chicago.

Seriously. I am not saying Sanogo will be a franchise player of an NBA team or even a starter, but he should at least be given enough minutes to be a solid bench contributor on an NBA team. He has the skills and the work ethic breaks the meter.

Thing is, that to anyone paying attention this isn’t the least bit surprising. He’s excelled at every level where he’s been given a chance.

The NBA gets too hung up on a players size sometime as opposed to what players have done on the court.

Couldn't have said it better myself.

He should have been playing all season. He’s literally their best offensive big man on their roster. Yes, he’s undersized but if he can pull down that many offensive rebounds in a game then size isn’t really an issue. He can score over size and has the strength to rebound over taller guys, so as long as he isn’t a complete liability on defense he should be playing.

He just needs a chance

 

[HuskyWarrior611]

If only the books allowed us to bet on his props before the game smh. Would’ve been such easy money.

Chance of 20 points 20 rebounds in his first game with more than 10 minutes- just amazing- love this program & everything it produces & stands for- just unreal run- go get em Adama!!

Adama Sanogo RAN EVERYWHERE!!!

 

[Waquoit]

20-20 official! Wow! And they win!

Unfortunate that they were not able to trade Drummond. Would have been a win win for both sides, Drummond gets to play on a better team and Sanogo gets PT to develop. Hopefully they are not on the same team next year.

Just hit the 20-20

 

[Stinger92860]

I’d like to think he had a triple double. 10 O rebounds, 10 D rebounds, 22 points. His plus/minus was +11 also.

 

[Marat]

I've been waiting to hear Adama with a breakout game if given the chance. Adama is one of my favorite UConn players, and hope he gets his chance to display his ability more.

 

[djct1999]

What a week! Congrats Adama!

 

[Skiblets]

How many games played does he need for the salary bump off of the two way?

 

[superjohn]

Crazy statline, he should've been playing all year for the Bulls.

 

[jibsey]

We know how stupid these people are to not give him a chance so far based on what we know about Adama. He’s going to outwork everybody.

 

[jleves]

He's on a 50/50 contact so he would have to have played in more than 50% of NBA games - that ship has sailed.

I’m guessing an undrafted rookie coming off the bench hasn’t had a 20 and 20 game in many many years if at all?
