AKOKKKKKK

 

[InKembaITrust]

My new favorite husky until Bouknight says otherwise

 

[Get a Job]

I'm starting to worry about the draft stealing him from us!

 

[amidagoat]

Nice finish on the alley

A star is being born!!!!

11/2/0 with a couple blocks and a few more altered is fantastic. Big time player.

He needs to be a little stronger with the ball. Seems to be playing nervous still.. hence the bonehaeaded dropped ball.

Legitimately think he could run a marathon after a game. He is in incredible shape. That was NOT the case when he got to uconn.

He looks a little too good

This kid is incredible... once again his energy and love of basketball gets me every time. Let’s go AKOK

 

[Dream Jobbed 2.0]

It’s been a long time since we had a player like him

 

[Get a Job]

Did he sit at all in the first half?

 

[HungryHuskies]

His and-one celebration at the beginning of the game on the floor can't happen anymore....I thought it was a reaction to an injury, mild heart attack.

Great game for Akok, let's keep it rolling!

Relax with the NBA talk if he goes after this year would be a huge mistake. Seeing his senior year is unlikely though!

He'll be here next year but that is probably it.

He's right around 30 mpg through 5 games against opponents with different sizes and skill sets. His motor goes all day long.

 

[jibsey]

He should do this right and stay 3 years, put on 25 pounds and gain the strength he needs before going.

Random thought.... why do announcers always say his first and last name.. " Akok Akok". never just "Akok". that's it.

I missed the first 25 minutes or so due to a power outage but upon looking at replays, he kept the team in the game for the first 4 or 5 minutes more or less until everyone else settled down.

Same reason no one ever said Nelson. It was always Ed Nelson.

A little?

Game will slow down for him tho. You can still see him thinking a lot. And then every once in a while he just hits 'play', and does something sweet.

Funny thing, during the game I was calling him Marathon Man, with the way he pumps his arms running up and down the floor.

Probably Bouk too if he has a trajectory in him.

Same here! My eyes almost popped out of my head and I think I stopped breathing for I can’t remember how long. Geez he’s gotta learn how to celebrate differently.

Was honestly not expecting him to be this good. Nice to have a positive surprise

He plays through his JR year or doesn't go to the NBA in round 1 AKA makes a mistake if he leaves before then. 18 months from now he won't be one of the best 30 NBA prospects. Will not be back for his sr year under IMO.
