Good pick up. Would love to see us grab a 3 with some length that can shoot and a center. Gaining a versatile 3 that can play small 4 is important too. With all of our guards I’d be nice to see Akot play some small ball center

This is a nice pickup. For the reasons I stated in the Transfers thread, Akok is easily our best big on Day 1, barring any other gets.

Welcome Akok! Much needed addition and will play big minutes if he is healthy. Stretch 4 man that can hit threes and block shots/rebound. Slots into the Jamorko Pickett role. Still need another big but this is a good addition.

We need help underneath, and this can’t hurt. After looking at his numbers, I’ll reserve further judgement until I see him on the court.

His biggest issue has been health. He’s been productive when he’s been out there and obviously as a rising senior coming from a BE program that plays good defense. A good addition. Still need another big that is more of a banger, but this a needed add.

2021-22 Akok averaged 3.4 points, 3.2 rebounds, and 1.1 blocks in 13.9 minutes per game. He averaged 47.9-percent from the field and 33.3-percent from the free-throw line. Numbers not great but hopefully he can be disruptive on defense, get some blocks, tips and get our fast break going. I think he will benefit greatly from our guard play.

The raw numbers don't paint a full picture on Akok. He's coming off an Achilles tear right before Covid hit. Didn't get a chance to play much when he returned and he was on a short leash when he did. He's a bit more dynamic than just a clean-up guy. |

Welcome aboard kid, now get to work. And, at work, you will notice two very large men. One is your head coach. He knows a thing or two about defending the paint. The other is your teammate’s Dad. He’ll be at all your games and has this one finger, you might sometimes see it wagging. Take note. Take note of both these men and learn everything they have to impart on you. The other smaller guys can help too, especially w your shot mechanics, but focus on those two big guys and you will go far.
Good luck big fella.
