This is a guy who would've stayed in Europe pre-NIL. I think the opportunties internationally are going to blow up

There must be a catch here, this kid looks way too good to be a third string, is Reibe moving to the 4?

IMO, there's way too much of this fear of being recruited over. The team simply needs one more big who can play the 5 and maybe some 4. And yes, Reibe can play some 4. If you're Reibe, Stewart, Reed or even Karaban, practice your ass off, play like a dog in games, try not to foul your way to the bench and try to outplay your teammates.
Also, as long as you've got more than one year of eligibility left, don't look at things as a one year window. Reed and Alex won't be around the following year. If you work hard and improve, an even bigger opportunity awaits. There's room for this type of player. Bring him on!

Navery, where'd you hear we were in on him? I've been looking around and haven't seen any news on it.
Interesting highlights. Not a great vertical leaper from what was shown; also doesn't look 6'11" either (a quick Google search shows him listed anywhere between 6'9" and 7'0"), but that could be because the other players are all relatively tall. Pretty decent footwork from a glance, but he may want to clean that up to avoid possible excessive traveling calls, depending on the ref. One thing I REALLY don't like-the overly long hanging on the rim on almost all the dunks shown; once in a while is OK, but it seems habitual with him (at least in this clip), which could potentially lead to unnecessary technicals.

Tom Moore specifically said yesterday they aren't pursuing any big-time NIL stuff any more with AK back now. So this is either wrong, or our interest was before AKs return.

Wonder if we were in contact while Reed was up in the air about returning.
They are not allowed to earn active work compensation in America on a student F1 visa. They can earn passive (percentage of jersey sales, etc.) NIL and they can earn their compensation while in other countries that allow it, among other "hacks."
