So, what gives? Chriss wasn’t a big name recurit, and he didn’t exactly light up the PAC-12. To be fair, he was average in a decent college league, but he didn’t really show the flashes of a top pick. Well, it is the same old draft story we are used to hearing.

Despite his world class athleticism, he still hasn’t developed a feel for the game. Nevertheless, a 6’9″ guy who can jump out of the gym will always get some NBA teams interested.
