Connor Vanover - who would have thought it

I saw him play for Arkansas Baptist against Ozark a few years back, He had a nice shot, but he was virtually immobile - literally. He could barely lumber up and down the court. He looked like someone who had grown too fast, and whose knees had not been able to keep up with the growth. I figured he would end up at some D2 school, or lower, purely because of his size (7-3). Lo and behold, he ends up at Cal, and was a significant contributor to their very bad team. He averaged 17.5 minutes per game, 7.5 ppg and 3.0 rpg. He was a good 3-point shooter. All that as a freshman.
