the YDNWHA sentiment is strong with this group.

Kid has potential and wasn't given a real opportunity. Wish him the best.

Haha! Wasn't given a real opportunity? Gotta show up ready to ball...not in the shape of a ball. He isn't polished and needs work...like most, but can't grasp that. This is on him.

He was lucky to get the playing time he did-due to a reduced roster. He didn't earn it that's for sure

Can you please explain how he wasn't given a real opportunity?

Hate this because of our depth issue....but agree with those that said he wasn't ready to play. I personally didn't see anything out of him that excited me, soft, slow, no hops, no physicality....can't be that big and play like that, even if you want to face the basket.

I thought that he showed a lot of potential. Needed polish. Nevertheless, the idea that he wasn't given an opportunity is insane. Either he felt misled about his role on the team or has gotten homesick. The story I read said that he is exploring opportunities back in Australia.

Castro was better.

As much as the kid came in with hype - he never really looked the part, which makes this move baffling - or should I say irrational. Though I wish he was staying, he really is a small fish in a very big pond.

he's no T.J. Robinson-might some day be a Rusty Bourquein or Jeff Swanson if he was lucky

Patrick Simpson or Mouhammad Faye would be nice additions to the team.
