Akok is POG with about 15 left in the 2nd half

A lot of blocks, shots altered and even a few hoops. He is the biggest factor this game. Amazed to see such talent for our young guys. And don't look now, but Gaffney is coming on too.

5 blocks so far. I am really enjoying watching this kid play.

Year two when he's stronger and finishes these bunnies, he is going to destroy the big east. Not many guys with his ability to guard 2-4 easily, 1-5 in a pinch. I could see him being a 12/7/2 with 4 blocks guy easily.

And the big thing is he doesn’t foul. That’s rare for young shot blockers

Sid with a huge block. Jackson is incredibly athletic. UConn may be back to block leaders next year.

First time I’ve loved Akok block.

Absolutely right...X Factor and rising. Boundless energy, poised, and willing to do the hard work.

We almost X’d the X. Hope we get an opportunity to play against them again this year.

He runs like Husain Bolt

Akok 7 rebounds and 6 blocks. Incredible, he has that knack. Not something that can be taught really. Even though his offense wasn’t there today he is the POG and Bouk and Carlton right there too.

The only other player in program history with this skill set of being able to hit threes and block multiple shots per game is Donyell, right?

Edit: also thought of Charlie V but I just checked his stats for 3s and blocks and akok already crushes it.
