@FarmerJayhawk He would get healthier sooner and Bill would automatically start him
-
Perfect fit and your #2 scorer. He’s a dog and a matchup nightmare
-
So we might get Williams but lose White? Sounds good to me
-
See the news about Gilbert Arena’s Son being in an induced coma after a bad car crash? Horrible news…
-
No broken bones is a good sign. Surely they would have said if anything else was wrong.

Sarr news?

Sarr news?
yes, this is in regards to Sarr. Just speculation at this point. Hoping Swain on 247 can confirm interest/target

If 𝓣𝓱𝓮𝔂 let Bill get Sarr…watch out… That’s athleticism from 1-5…
-
Bossi confirmed KU is in the mix…

@BShark any leader yet?

Been begging for a wing for weeks. Don’t let me down Coach

@dylans Thanks bud , hew well after reading and then watching a little I was worried about him and the Draft but sounds like he is not entering that, sounds like to late for the coming Season anyways now.-- Would be a sweet get
-
Illinois had one of his teammates and he’s headed to the draft so they were thought to have a slam dunk in landing him but seems like they are out after getting Andre Stojakovic.
Sarr played on Barcelona’s top-level team as well so lots of promise for a kid not even 18 yet.
-
Sarr sounds like another great options for a starting level wing piece. Have to think he will be the cheaper than Williams and could get a decision form him sooner, but he does seem like he need a bit more weight to be playing the 4 at 6-7, 180 lbs. Maybe the goal is White at the 4? But still need someone to round out 10-15 min there.
IMO Williams still seems like the better fit on top of being a proven player, but is a risk waiting on him and missing on both.
-
Second coming of Svi, age and all?
-
It sounds like White will play the 4 here as of right now. Sarr looks strictly a wing, Williams is a grown man that I think you can get away with playing some time at the 4. Tiller is the backup there currently if healthy. Definitely need a wing scorer to pair with Dawson. Whether its an expensive option, a less expensive option or something even cheaper is what we are waiting to see what domino falls.
-
@BeddieKU23 So your saying he is entering the draft ? The article I read that Dylans shared with me is the deadline came and left without him entering, and it said it looks like he is playing College ball at least for a year
-
He’s not in the draft as I understand it. His former teammate that went to Illinois this past season, is in the draft.

If you can get Williams it’s a no brainer to take him over Sarr IMO
Word is Illinois went with other options because they felt Sarr wasn’t worth the cost.
-
I won’t complain about either, but Williams is the proven commodity.
-
I’m actually gonna disagree and go with the higher upside swing imo in Sarr. You’ll lose a few more non con games but if Self gets him to lock in we would have two lottery picks on the team.

I’m thinking we could see the news you are wanting fairly soon…
