Man, we gotta Boatright this kid.

I was actually watching videos of this kid the other day and I really think he needs to put on some weight to avoid injury. I know he's young, but his legs are the skinniest legs I've ever seen. Drummond, by comparison, has tree trunks for legs and just has a better overall build.

That being said, I'm sure Maker will turn himself into a very good player and it'll be very interesting to watch how he develops.

Looks like Ajou and Ater. Hope he ends up more like AD.

Forget basketball, I hope this kid will be able to date before he graduates high school.

Dude's a walking ACL injury just waiting to happen. Growing that fast can be bad for your joints. My buddy from high school shot up a foot in a year and has torn bith his ACLs multiple times and a couple menisci (multiple of meniscus) and he's only 22

the kid is 14 years old we have no idea what kind of build hes going to have. in the next few years he`ll get stronger and build muscle like every 14 year old boy does. this kid has amazing coordination for a kid his size and age.
